Changes and additions since version 11.9 are:
Changed default forwarding header line in CONFIG.TNC to match
the one that seems to have won the "header wars".
Add "ET" command, Edit Traffic. Allows ordinary user to change
the "TO", "AT", "TYPE" and "TITLE" field if msg is TYPE T or S or
it is addressed TO NTSxxx.
Forwarding file can have "*" and "?" in destination patterns.
Define mhext field in msg header and clear it in untangle and for new msg.
(Local mod at K1BC: Disallow connects via BADDIG digipeater.
You could patch this callsign to a real digi, as I have done here.)
Reading an S msg is not considered "snooping".
Changes and additions since version 11.8 are:
Changes from K1BC:
Add counter of What? and Can't do it errors. If get a lot of them
in one connect, force a timeout. Recovers from at least some cases of
missing a *** Disconnected.
Add NE command. Lets user toggle his own "Expert" bit.
Add NH command. Lets user tell us his Home BBS. (Sysop still
has to extract it from USER.DAT and use it in FWD.TNC.)
Add GZ command. Does GU and at same time clears "last read msg number"
for each user. Use when you do a GR, so user doesn't miss new msgs the
first time he logs in after GR.
Change to login: Used to be when a remote sysop connected, he didn't
get the "you have new mail" msg. Now he does, but only if he isn't also
a BBS (don't want it when connect for forwarding).
Ask user for his home BBS when he connects, if we don't know it. Text
is configurable, can be null if you don't want this.
Notice when someone reads somebody else's mail, i.e., mail to a real
callsign other than his own (except B and T type mail are OK to
read). Send a msg when he does this. Message can be impolite, polite
or omitted. If you have a user who you want to prevent from doing this,
mark him disabled on either port A or port B (whichever he doesn't use)
and he will be prevented from reading other people's mail.
Enforce length check on "TO" calls. If it's over 6, it can't be
right, so do a "What?" error. Catches "S W1BC@K1BC" where he should
have said "S W1BC @ K1BC".
If someone does an "S" command while he is connected by a link from
another BBS, send a message to him after accepting the msg. This
msg can be omitted, but is intended to be a reminder that he is tying
up two BBSes by doing that and he should just send it locally and
let it be forwarded.
Remove the following glitch: Used to be, if you did KT instead of K,
a service msg was generated even if the msg being killed was not
a "T" type message. Led to confusion. Now don't make S msg unless
killed msg was a T msg.
If a user is excluded on both A and B ports, don't let him in via
linking from another BBS, either.
Add config parameter to restrict "*** LINKED to" connects to BBS only.
Add time-of-day dependent parameters: BBS only on A,B and L, GateWay on.
Add "Busy" vs "Quiet" hours definition in config file.
