oh, i'm not surprised about the linux version being buggy. my hosts ran
the ftp server and i think things were decent. The email support i
wouldn't even use.
Back when irex was still supported and the world was young... LOL I ran pretty much every feature it had. Mailing lists, email, ftp, bink, etc.
It was a great program.

I was even able to figure out how to use it to exchange QWK mail with VERT so I could carry Dovenet on my DOS BBS. It was a really neat program back in the day.

This is 25 years later and without the author keeping things updated
it's essentially a buggy binkp program now. It's a shame really

What drew me to Synchronet was being able to run a telnettable BBS,
SMTP/POP3/IMAP servers, NNTP, FTP and a web server, all in one package.
All this ran, back in the early 2000s, on a Celeron 533 with 512 MB of
RAM.
people say it's buggy and they have problems but I'm not sure what exactly is going on and couldn't really get a clear answer other than the linux version isn't great.

Ahem, I'm still running irex, bink and nntp gateway work fine :-)
