I set up a FIDO system a while back and made it accessible via telnet.
For the life of me, I can't recall how I got the port redirection
working, I wonder if I used DOSBOX?

My first incarnation of realitycheckBBS was on Opus CBCS, I switched to
Telegard because my poor AT couldn't keep up with tossing individual
*.msg files very well.

For most of the '90s, I ran on Maximus - because I liked the sparse
menus in Opus.

I kept thinking back to Opus - being able to combine a BBS, full screen
editor and a mailer into a DOS BBS was quite a task.
