So have I, for myself. The problems I face are :
Getting the areas, and only the areas that the users are allowed/have tagged 
(use a mex to spit their tagged areas out to a TIMED.CFG file it writes or 
alters on the fly, and make sure it can't see the SQUISH.CFG file?)
Preventing shelling (Should be simple by re-defining the keys in TimEd and 
telling DoorWay not to allow a shell)
Preventing users from reading messages other than ones addressed to them in 
PVT areas (copy all their mail to a temp area? TimEd doesn't seem to have the 
ability to show mail onlt intended for the addressee.
Get those solved and it'll be easy to implement :-)
Cya..
Dave
