Is there a way to setup your email client to fetch your BBS mail?
that depends on the BBS software... it is likely also limited to only private mail... private mail being FTN netmail which is similar to internet email...
FTN echomail is similar to internet news... some email clients also function as
news clients... some BBS systems offer their echomail areas in a news format...
the most common "problem" is that a BBS maintains the last read pointers of its
users... news cannot do that as there is no facillity to pass that information from the client back to the server for storage... news clients maintain their own last read pointers...
