there are loads of open source BBS projects that run on apache under debian - 
there are even several that are part of debian.

But I haven't found any that I want to use or would recommend.

I want something with a good security record, good moderation features, is 
easy and appealing for end users - and I want web and email access.

I've been wondering how feasible it would be to write a small web application 
to display Mailman archives, BBS style, the app could then simply mail any 
web based messages to Mailman ...
