[Gllug] Bulletin Boards

[mute8]

I have had good results with XMB - but it depends how featureful you want  
things - IMO less features = less problems (especially with sendmail). You  
can tweak and add new features if you're up to snuff with PHP.
Heed well the warnings about security - XMB patch their scripts in a  
fairly timely manner, the others I cannot comment on.

Of course, for full control, write your own...
