About fax + bbs, On Thu May 05 2005

ac> Possibly opening a can of worms, but can anyone here recommend some

ac> FidoNet mailer, to work as a FidoNet node?  I'd like to run this on

Sorry about the long quote, if Binkley has been ported to Linux it should
do the trick very well indeed.  I am not sure if BGFAX has been ported, the
author might release the code for porting if one can catch up to him.  The
source for Binkley is freely available.  The Husky project may also have
something out there that will do the trick.

If memory serves PMFAX for linux is freeware, but probably will not do the trick.

Hope this helps.  Keep us posted.

We are a fine board trying to make it better.
