Hey Benny!

 BP> Amiga will only have EMSI

Any decent Linux based fidonet software doesn't require EMSI even on a regular
serial port modem.  Good luck finding a working serial port modem these days. 
USB modems are a more likely target and for those there are kernel modules that
should work just fine.  Also they should have no issues with binkd and possibly
other binkp capable software.  No abandonware required.

As for Amiga there isn't a linux distribution for them so it really isn't worth
persuing.  A computer without linux isn't worth wasting electricity on
methinks.

Life is good,
Maurice
