We have created this listing of Maine's Public BBS's to assist the modem using public in locating information which is so readily available to them. The list is sorted alphabetically by name. We encourage you to use and support all of them. We of course, grant no warranty of the validity of this information, but strive to do the best we can. If you discover an error please report it!

Free access: Users are fully registered with NO FEES, on their first call. Full board use. Files, conferences (public conferences that is), and anything else that is open to the public. Subscription: None !! Comments: My goal in running a BBS, is to be as different and unique, as a board can be with all the other excellent boards that are available to you as a user of them. I am in the 'development' stages of setting the system up for users to get the greatest use of the board. If you log onto the board, and you see anything you have a question(s) about, PLEASE let me know about it/them in a 'Comment to the SysOp'. Any ideas, suggestions, or comments you have, usually leads to a more interesting system for you and others alike. Also, if you are a TEACHER, or a SysOp let the me know and you will be registered in those conferences respectively. ======== Following is a template for reporting a new entry.
