- PRMBS Ver 1.50 03/01/91
-
- *** update version for anyone using v1.45-1.48 see included RME files
- for these versions as well (ver 1.49 was never released) ***
-
- CONFIG changes - date/version
-
- PROBLEMS fixed:
-
- - in 1.48 with the change in the manner flood pointers were
- generated, a minor change to the findmsg() function set up a condition
- where under specific circumstances an 'L' command would lock the system.
-
- - for several versions 'km' (kill mine') was blowing everything
- addressed to user away, read or unread - and if that person was sysop,
- all messages addressed to SYSOP as well - it is fixed.
-
- CHANGES:
- There is a SETPARM parameter called HOLDMAIL. If set ON when any
- message is being saved, it will check for files HOLDTO.RS, HOLDFROM.RS,
- and/or HOLDAT.RS if the TO, FROM, or AT fields of the incoming message
- match calls listed in any of these files (like all other PRMBS
- permission type files, they do not have to be present.0if you have no
- files as suchthen setthe parameter OFF and save disk churning. You can
- also setup the files for when you are away and turn the parameter
- OFF/ON based on your general presence - like turn it ON when you are
- away for the weekend and back off when you get back) and save an
- messagethat makes a match as status 'H'. it could be used to filter
- @ALLBBS or @USA (editorial comment here, the concept appalls me, but I
- see the need for the mechanism from a pragmatic standpoint)
-
- When a message is created locally by sysop or a user and the TO field
- contains the letters ALL as the first three characters (ALL, ALLUSA,
- ALLCAN, etc) The system will display the following message and prompt
- the user to re-enter the TO field
-
- *** The TO field of a bulletin should be more specific than $S.
