   Unfortunately, Blue Wave is "system specific" meaning it will only work with   
   the BBS the version you have is designed for (such as Maximus, Telegard, et   
   cetera).  Blue Wave won't read/write QWK packets from the BBS as it is   
   designed to directly pull/post the mail to/from the message base used by each   
   BBS software using that software's message base structures.   
      
   Since you're running Synchronet, good luck.  There's hardly any third-party   
   utilities for Synchronet and AFAIK, there is no BW-style door for it.   
      
   You might just have to write this one yourself or get someone else to do it.    
   I know that MBSE and Ezycom BBS software can read/write Blue Wave packets   
   natively.
