   Hi Nick welcome to the club, I had the same feeling, but with the help of the   
   Guys and reading better the   
   documentation I'll sort it out.

   Well it depends for which platform you use. I installed on Debian Jessie and   
   RaspBerry PI3 in a "breeze". Didn't need to write by hand msgs areas or files   
   areas.   
   When you familiarize with mbsetup is quite easy.

   Other BBS Software has pros and cons like MBSE.

   I installed on Raspberry PI3 with Raspbian, if you want I am glad to pass you   
   some notes.
