Unfortunately, Blue Wave is "system specific" meaning it will only work with
the BBS the version you have is designed for (such as Maximus, Telegard, et
cetera).  Blue Wave won't read/write QWK packets from the BBS as it is
designed to directly pull/post the mail to/from the message base used by each
BBS software using that software's message base structures.

Since you're running Synchronet, good luck.  There's hardly any third-party
utilities for Synchronet and AFAIK, there is no BW-style door for it.

You might just have to write this one yourself or get someone else to do it. 
I know that MBSE and Ezycom BBS software can read/write Blue Wave packets
natively.

Later,
Sean
