FWIW: the door is most likely the actual place that you end up in when you
choose to gather the new messages and download the qwk packet... in many
cases, the sysop has enough leeway to be able to match the screens with the
BBS' decor and it can be hard to tell when one leaves the BBS and goes into
an external door for whatever reason (ie: time bank, offline mail, etc)...
