I'm going to add a counter, and the exact reason I did so with enimga.

JAM and others are old and busted, complex, and not very flexible. Supported by many tools that touch your systems *internals*. I didn't like this. So enigma uses it's own SQLite based system, and exposes everything via import/export. So e.g. FTN/Bink, QWK, etc. are all possible, but don't touch the system directly.

There are zero wrong answers here :D
