> BTW, you mentioned the ISS.  I talked to a friend who is familiar with packet operations on the ISS.  He said it is mostly done with APRS messages.  Short and sweet since there’s not a lot of time during a pass.  He said the ISS also has a BBS, but there’s only about 10 minutes to interact, the link is iffy, and if others are trying to use APRS, then BBS messages are discouraged.

> If you’re looking for a client application to provide an easy to use interface for users, have you tried Outpost?  It presents a basic, e-mail like interface to the user (In Tray, Out Tray, Send/Receive button, etc.)  The user creates a message, then uses Send/Receive.  Outpost automatically detects the type of BBS it is connecting to (JNOS, Kantronics TNC, etc.) and uses the right commands to send/receive messages, check for bulletins, etc.  It has lots of options for configuring it to behave just the way you want.
