I don't know about Mailbox-64, but there are several public domain
BBS systems floating around. Perhaps it would be benificial to try
them out first.

I also advise you to get a seperate phone line for the BBS, as you
will have people calling it at all hours of the day & night.

Drop me some mail if you're interested in the public domain software.
