Oh yes, there are in fact quite a lot of ST's on FidoNet. Maybe not
compared to the number of PC's, but still quite a few.
In Europe a FidoNet-compatible mailer called "The-Box" is avaiable. It's
shareware, created by some freaks from the Netherlands (I think...)
Maybe I can post it to the net, I don't know if that's ok with them.
I'll try to get in touch with him about that.
Anyhow, I can send you a copy, that's ok according to all the infofiles.
Also, there's a OPUS-clone called "Pandora". It's not bad, but not the
best BBS-program one could think of. I've heard some rumours about a
BBS-program called "Q-BBS" that should be SW, too. I haven't seen it
working.

Just my limited knowledge, feel free to add any other programs or
to correct any errors in this article...
