+01Nov01=======================================================================
+1. added information on registration, login scripts and passiwords to the
+administration manual
+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. This probably only works for unix systems. To enable
+this feature you need to download Mail::Send from CPAN and install it.
+(http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Mail/MailTools-1.40.tar.gz). If you
+don't want this then it should work without.
+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
+last port of call).
+3. ignore deleted messages for queuing purposes
+4. store deleted status across restarts!
+5. make callsign checking more rigorous
+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. 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
+02Oct01=======================================================================
+1. fixed the 'ever lengthening msg' syndrome and probably made the whole
+thing more reliable at the same time.
+2. do some restructuring of the msg system and upissue the version no.
+3. fix @xxxx syntax for bbs input
01Oct01=======================================================================
1. made login info not the default
2. change the looping protoection for PC16/17/19/21 and also be more rigorous
5. Go back to the old way of caching commands (but without the silly warnings
because I know better what I am doing now). This allows symbolic debugging
of commands again without coredumps. Hurrah!
+6. Add badword handling for messages. Users will get rude messages back if
+they try to send naughty words in msgs. Incoming messages with badwords will
+be dropped on receipt and their contents logged.
+7. and if you swear 3 or more times you are unceremoniously logged out.
30Sep01=======================================================================
1. made some small bug fixes in rspf checking and also messages.
