   I sounds Maximus would be the perfect fit, unfortunately it is unmaintained   
   for a long time. I wasn't able to compile it on a recent Linux distro. It was   
   ported to gcc 3.x a long time ago, but after that nobody touched the sources   
   anymore. I loved Maximus for being very simple in the default install, but   
   also very extensible.   
      
   Besides the closed sourced Mystic there is Enigma½ and Synchronet. All three   
   are bigger packages and have everything included (only Enigma doesn't inlcude   
   a mailer).   
      
   A very new project is Talisman BBS. It uses a Squish message base.
