Take a look at Discus
http://www.discusware.com/discus/index.php
I've used the freeware version for my MUG's message board for for a few
years.
http://www.macswest.org/discus
It was easy to install and customize, and is very easy to maintain. The
freeware version emails messages to registered members of the board, but
they have to go to the website to post their replies. The Pro version allows
email message posting.
You might also want to take a look at Geeklog
http://geeklog.sourceforge.net/
This is a weblog, not a message board, but it seems to me that it might
function as one. For an example, take a look at the Mac OS X Hints site
http://www.macosxhints.com
Good luck!
