  • 9640 News BBS and Message Archives

    From Beery Miller@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jun 12 08:14:29 2018
    Yesterday evening, I completed the task of uploading all the comp.sys.ti messages previously provided to my BBS along with the TI99 Listserv messages from the late 90's. There were like 15,000+ comp.sys.ti messages and 8,000+ TI99 listserv messages. I
    also have the Yahoogroup archives from the Geneve group as well as the TI-99/4A group on the BBS as well, captured for historical purposes.

    These messages are in "JAM" format, so if anyone is wanting to host a BBS, it is very easy to zip the files up for each category, and be on your way. Myself, I use Mystic BBS which has both 32 and 64 bit Window versions, as well as a Linux version that
    can run on a Raspberry PI. Even if you are not wanting to run a BBS where users can call you, if you setup a system, you can run what they call a point from my system and I can forward the email traffic. This would give you active access to comp.sys.ti,
    various Retronet groups supporting the TI-99/4A and other orphans, the yahoogroup messages, etc.

    If interested, let me know. My BBS can be reached via telnet at 9640news.ddns.net Port 9640. Or, you can go to http://9640news.ddns.net:8080/ with a web broswer and select the Telnet link there to access the BBS via a web browser. I also have links to
    both Heatwave and Fusion BBS's that can be accessed through the web browser as well.

    Later.
