And now we add a tosser, this is going to be one huge package. :)
Chris, why not write a front end mailer, "stand alone" but part of the whole 
package. Instead of having an option to turn off part of the integrated 
package and leaving unused code in memory, the user will have the option to 
use the front end or not. Once the front end mailer is written, we now have 
the springboard for the BBS software. They both are done justice and can 
stand on their own.
Here's a couple of items I see needed...
1. We need to elect board members. the board will decide what goes in and 
what stays out. The board members will also be the keepers of the code. 
Lawrence and you should automatically be voted to the board since this was 
you're idea and he's the moderator of this conference.
2. We need is a flow chart or some kind of layout as too what we intend to do 
and how we should go about it.
3. We need more input from others, I've seen very little on this topic, we 
need to make everyone feel part of this project with or without code input.
4. We need to KISS IT! "keep it simple stupid!"
This is not all I have to say on this subject but it will due for now.
If I'm speaking out of turn say so...
