Using BGFAX with BBS Software

BGFAX can be used by any BBS software that allows the use of a "frontend". A frontend is another program answers the phone (usually a Fido mailer, but in this case, BGFAX) and then passes human callers over to the BBS for processing.

Every modern BBS program today allows this except for client-server systems such as TBBS and Major BBS.

Here are some example BGFAX setup files for various BBS software...
