+06Nov01=======================================================================
+1. fix read so that sysop reading doesn't increment the read counter for 
+private mail not addressed to them.
+04Nov01=======================================================================
+1. Allow the user to equal the node in RSPF checks (this allows spots and 
+stuff with the origin and spotter to be the same (although it is STRONGLY 
+recommended that they are NOT!!! [hint hint]).
+2. make the send command rather more sensitive to what is allowed. Basically
+it will only allow TO addresses that are bull addresses (if not private) or
+vaild callsigns (if private). Bull addresses are the ones in 
+/spider/msg/forward.pl with a 'T' flag on them. If there is no forward 
+file it will only allow 'ALL' and 'DX' as valid Bull TO addresses. You may
+use commas as callsign separators if you like.  
+02Nov01=======================================================================
+1. fixed some Aliasing problems, but this whole area will have to be addressed
+more comprehensively.
+2. Changed talk logging so that it hopefully is more consistant and maybe even
+useful.
+3. Altered the mechanism of the personal emailing so that it uses lower level
+components and should be therefore available on M$ platforms. You will need
+to install a version of libnet (perl -MCPAN -eshell, then install Net::SMTP).
+I believe all 5.6.x perls have this built in (ie M$ should have this). If you
+are on M$ or you want to use an MTA via SMTP in linux then you need to declare
+the dns name of the MTA by: set/var $DXMsg::email_server = 'post.fred.net' 
+(or whatever the MTA is called). You can also use local programs other than
+sendmail by: set/var $DXMsg::email_prog = '/usr/bin/postfix ..' or whatever.
+Finally you can alter the 'from' address using: set/var $DXMsg::email_from
+= 'FBloggs@msn.com' (\@ if you use " and ") - bewarned that you may be 
+prevented from using just any old address. You can place these commands in
+/spider/scripts/startup for permanent use.
+01Nov01=======================================================================
+1. added information on registration, login scripts and passwords to the
+26Oct01=======================================================================
+1. If $main::reqreg = 1 then set/register will allow 'registered' users 
+full access, if $main::reqreg = 2 then registered users will be 'read-only'
+(ie the opposite). If $main::reqreg = 0 then registration and its effects
+are disabled.
+25Oct01=======================================================================
+1. added unset/password command to allow sysops (only) to completely delete
+and remove a user's password.
+2. make 'read' increment the 'no of times read' for all messages.
+3. give a read receipt for everybody that reads a message so marked.
+4. enhance set/email so that if you set email address(es) with this command
+it will send any messages to your callsign as they come in. unset/email
+will disable forwarding. 
+24Oct01=======================================================================
+1. added (un)set/register, show/registered commands which when a 'set/var
+$main::reqreg = 1' is done in the startup script will require users to 
+be 'registered' in order for them to have 'write' access to the node. Non-
+registered users will only be allowed to TALK or SEND PRIVATE to the cluster
+sysop callsign.
+2. Added password interrogation to the ExtMsg connections. If a user comes
+in via telnet and this is being done with the internal listener and a pass-
+word has been set for that user - he will be asked for it. You can force 
+a password interrogation (for ALL users) with a 'set/var $main::passwdreq = 1'
+in the node's startup script. It is anticipated that if you are using
+registration you will also issue passwords to those registered users.
+3. set/password has been changed so that users already with passwords can 
+change them.   
+4. A non-registered user will get the /spider/data/motd_nor file instead of
+the motd on login.
+5. made the BadWord regexes slightly less aggressive WARNING this may let
+some constructions thru, but hopefully will also allow more legitimate 
+foreign (mainly) things thru as well. 
+19Oct01=======================================================================
+1. Allow DELETE (0x7f) for backspace in console.pl
+2. redo prefix table using latest cty.dat
+14Oct01=======================================================================
+1. Add the shortform SH/ST like display to sh/user <call> to make it more
+AK1A compatible (G0RDI+G4PDQ pace).
+12Oct01=======================================================================
+1. make del nnn delete messages again (fix system Aliases file)
+2. substr the subject so that the dup works for stuff coming back via AK1A
+09Oct01=======================================================================
+1. change Aliases to allow shutdown as a command again. If you have changed
+/spider/cmd/Aliases and you update from CVS you may find it better to remove
+this file and then do another 'cvs update'. Otherwise you may get conflicts
+and the Aliase file will not load properly. The cvs update will recreate 
+the (now) missing file.
+2. Remove the 'please don't use XXXX on here' messages to prevent people
+from exploring the 'bad words space'. Three bad words will still disconnect
+without warning. 
+3. Sending dx spots/announces with bad words will succeed - but only back to
+the sender. These two mods are designed to annoy the perpitrators of the
+sort of filth as much as possible whilst not inconveniencing 'normal' users.
+4. Add expunge feature to kill. Deleting messages now marks a msg for 
+deletion two days hence. To have the old behaviour, do a 'kill exp' or use
+the standard alias "expunge". This will cause the message to be deleted at
+the next queue message cycle.
+5. Put in prototype echo handling for direct connections using ExtMsg and
+Listeners.pm.
+6. fix msgs to g1tlh-2 (as opposed to g1tlh)
 04Oct01=======================================================================
 1. allow a residence time of (default) 2 days before actually deleting a msg.
 2. reduce the number R: lines on a bull from a bbs to 2 (the origin and the
@@ -8,7 +100,8 @@ last port of call).
 6. dup check PC49 (kill full)
 7. improved the regex matching of badwords (more efficient, better coverage)
 8. added default badword and badw_regex tables (as .issue files) which will
-activate unless there is one there already.
+activate unless there is one there already. It will NOT overwrite an existing
+file - so if you change it your changes will remain intact.
 03Oct01=======================================================================
 1. don't allow @WWW to become a 'TO' field...
 2. handle @gb7tlh.#35.eu type addresses as well
