If you can setup under OS9 or Nitros9 RiBBS was a very powerful BBS.  I was the Author so I might be a bit bias :)
 
It did allow multitasking to some degree, however it is more complicated due to the amount of options and it was origanally setup for the Fidonet.  
Heck maybe I will set one up as well and we can Fidonet share messages :)   Starting to sound like old times again .
