Actually now I come think about it, I don't think there's any difference 
between TBBSNC and XLAXNODE. There isn't any need - apart from the fact that 
TBBSNC doesn't need registering. I was thinking of George Peace's mail 
processor. I can't think what the generic version was called (was it QECHO?) 
but the TBBS version with access to the TBBS database was called FLAME.

Best wishes, David
