I propose a SPEC change to better match the MAIL symbol
that is currently in use in many programs:
>>> "Stephen H. Smith" <WA8LMF2 at aol.com> 12/6/04 5:26:06 PM >>>

The \] "PBBS" symbol used by many Windows and other
"icon" based OS's is shown as a big blue Post-Office Box
with the letters MAIL on it. I like this symbol. And since
we dont really need to distinguish between a BBS and a
PBBS any longer, I propose to change the wording of the
APRS SPEC symbol table to call the \] a MAIL or POST-
OFFICE instead of a PBBS.
If you have a PBBS, use the BBS symbol
If there are no objections, consider it done.
