You want to have a MP menu command to post a new message setup.

Then you need a message base set up and defined as a 'netmail' base type

The key is to assign ACS settings for List,Read,Post access such that only 
users that have the correct security settings can list the base, read the 
message and post to the netmail base.

You only need one netmail base to handle all netmail on your BBS, Mystic 
will route netmails to different networks (zones etc.) on it's own.
