The Netmail idea turned out to be simpler than I initially thought. I already had a working private messaging system inside the BBS. So I added a personal mail address for every user and made it possible to send messages using either a nickname or the full mail address.
For example:
skylords@bbs.skylordslab.com
Everything is still working internally. External email integration is something I may work on later.
Now I am thinking about adding Finger and .plan files to SkyLordsLab BBS too. Looking at the existing user profiles and messaging features I think it might not be too difficult to implement something similar. I have started researching how these old systems worked.
I am still learning and experimenting. Every old technology I discover seems to give me another idea for the BBS.
And thanks to nostr:npub13hyx3qsqk3r7ctjqrr49uskut4yqjsxt8uvu4rekr55p08wyhf0qq90nt7 for sharing information about Finger and .plan files. Your suggestion gave me something new to explore.
