"Bulletin Board" software



I just got tasked at work with finding a 
bulletin board for our intranet to use.  One friend recommends vBulletin, 
and I hear that MoveableType is excellent (although I'm not sure it's 
truly open source, and it's more of a blog thing than a usenet/threaded 
discussion thing).  The thing is, we'd kinda like a servlet based one.
So if in the process of answering Bill's question anybody's knows of an 
open source (or low cost) Java/servlet base bulletin board system I'd like 
to hear about it :).
