Er...not meaning to toot my own horn (or at least not too loudly!), I'm
just now finishing off a program that will enable exactly what you
require.

It's called TransNet, and eats about 50K.  It is a BBS system as well
as a scheduled XMODEM upload/download program.  It also includes
UNIX-*LIKE* mail facilities and will shortly be interfaced for UUCP
and KERMIT.

It's about ready to market, but I'm still looking for a "few good Beta
Sites".  I figure the retail price will be around $150 (for corporations)
and $80 for individuals.

For more information (or for you early-birds: For placing orders!),
give me a call at (212)-889-6431 or send mail to the below address.
