The JAM Message Base Format was one of the most popular file formats of message bases on
DOS-based
BBSes in the 1990s. JAM stands for "Joaquim-Andrew-Mats" after the original authors of the
API, Joaquim Homrighausen, Andrew Milner, Mats Birch, and Mats Wallin.[1] Joaquim was the author of
FrontDoor, a DOS-based
FidoNet-compatible mailer. Andrew was the author of
RemoteAccess, a popular DOS-based
Bulletin Board System. JAM was originally released in 1993 in C, however the most popular implementation was Mark May's "MK Source for Msg Access" written in
Pascal which also saw its initial release in 1993.[2]
