Bill,

In the same way as you need a comms program with BW to send the mail packet
to a BBS, one could write an application which takes the BW packet and
"uploads" it to the Internet.  

Rather than actually uploading the packet anywhere, such a program would
unpack the BW packet and then send mail via SMTP to your mail account and
any newsgroup articles via NNTP to your news server. Then it would create a
new BW packet with any new newsgroup and mail messages (using NNTP &
POP3 respectively to get the messages).

I'm not sure such an app. actually exists, but FWIW I wrote an app. that
collects articles from nominated newsgroups into a BlueWave packet.  I
never fully completed it since the world changed too much and most people
want to work with "normal" Internet software, not packet oriented
like the old BBS systems. As well, lots of us actually process our mail and
news postings while we are still online (so no offline reader is really
needed).
