- ; MESSAGE.CTL - an example message area config file
- ;
- ; The examples below illustrate most of the commands available in this
- ; file; here is a complete listing:
- ;
- ; MSGAREA {number} - Starts a message area definition.
- ; MSGAREA @NEXT - Starts a message area definition, gives the new area
- ; an area number one higher than the last one
- ; MSGAREA @NEXT 10 - Starts a message area definition, gives the new area
- ; an area number 10 higher than the last one
- ; NAME {Area Name} - Defines the message area's name as the user sees it
- ; QWKNAME {Name} - Defines the area as seen in the user's QWK reader.
- ; The QWKNAME must be 12 characters or less.
- ; NEWSGROUP {news.group} - Defines the Usenet Newsgroup (if any) associated
- ; with this message area.
- ; TYPE {type} - Defines the message base type, either SQUISH, JAM or *.MSG
- ; PATH {path} - Defines what directory the area lives in. For Squish and
- ; JAM areas this also includes the base filename.
- ; ATTACH PATH {path} This defines the path where file attaches in this area
- ; will be stored. If this path is not defined, file
- ; attaches will not be allowed.
- ; ATTACH ACCESS {ac} This defines the access level needed to post file
- ; attaches to this area. This option has no effect unless
- ; the ATTACH PATH is also defined.
- ; ACCESS {access} - Defines the access needed to read messages.
- ; POSTACCESS {ac.} - Defines the access needed to post messages.
- ; PRIVATE - Only private messages are allowed.
- ; PUBLIC - Only public messages are allowed. If neither this nor
- ; PRIVATE is used, the user is asked if the message should
- ; be private.
- ; RFC1036 - This causes an RFC-1036 Usenet message header to be
- ; prepended to the message text.
- ; AGE {age} - Minimum age required for access to the area
- ; FEMALEONLY - Only females may read or post to the area.
- ; MALEONLY - Only males may read or post to the area.
- ; READONLY - This is a read-only area - only the sysop can post!
- ; This may be somewhat redundant as it has the same effect
- ; as setting POSTACCESS to the sysop access level.
- ; ECHOMAIL - This is a Fidonet echomail area
- ; ADDRESS {z:n/n.p}- The originating Fidonet address for this area
- ; ORIGIN {OrgLine} - The text of the Origin Line for this area
- ; KLUDGE REALNAME - The user's real name will be hidden in a ^A kludge line
- ; prepended to the message text.
- ; INTERNET EMAIL - The area is intended for Internet email.
- ; INTERNET DIVERT {area} - If the user enters a To: that appears to be
- intended for an Internet address (presence of @,
- period or exclamation point will trigger this), then
- divert the message to the specified area number.
- ; KEYS {keys} - The user key(s) required for access
- ; POSTKEYS {keys} - The user key(s) required to post
- ; REALNAME - Always post with the user's real name
- ; ANONYMOUS - Allow anonymous posting
- ; CENSOR - Use the built-in message censor in this area.
- ; BARRICADE - Check the barricade file MESSAGES.BAR before changing to
- ; this area!
- ; INCLUDE {filename} - Include this file in the message area definitions
- ; END - End the area's definition.
- ;
- ;
- ; You may also demarcate message areas by content type, network affiliation
- ; or whatever criterion you like by grouping them together and partitioning
- ; them with dividers.
- ;
- ; DIVIDER - Start a divider definition (no parameters)
- ; DISPLAY - Text to display in the divider (see SysMsg 340 in the
- ; language file)
- ; FILENAME {name} - Display filename specified by {name} instead of
- ; SysMsg 340
- ; MALEONLY
- ; FEMALEONLY
- ; AGE {age}
- ; ACCESS {access}
- ; KEYS {keys} - AGE, ACCESS, KEYS, MALEONLY and FEMALEONLY enable or
- ; suppress the divider in much the same way they do for
- ; message area definitions
- ; END - End the divider's definition
