34<PRE>This has also been asked for before, but I seem to remember someone said
35&quot;use logonnews&quot; :)...
36
37I would patch that in, though, if I had the time (which I don't
38currently ;).

50</I>&gt;<i> Why not &quot;split the difference&quot; and add an optional mass memo feature for
51</I>&gt;<i> services admins? something that will give all users a copy of
52</I>&gt;<i> the memo...?

61</I>&gt;<i> Yes the RFC explicity forbids services /msging users. If your users don't
62</I>&gt;<i> read /msgs then that's their problem. I seem to remember a topic about
63</I>&gt;<i> this a few months back. It could certainly be done as a services patch,
64</I>&gt;<i> but it will definitely not be included in the services distribution (and
65</I>&gt;<i> I would usually code a patch, but I feel strongly about this so I'm not
66</I>&gt;<i> going to).

80</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
81</I>&gt;<i> &gt; If I recall correctly (you can search the list archives to
82</I>&gt;<i> &gt; verify), an RFC specifies that any automated correspondances should be
83</I>&gt;<i> &gt; sent via /notice, as opposed to /msg. I believe Andrew responded to a
84</I>&gt;<i> &gt; related question some time ago, so watch for his address when searching.
85</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Was it in the RFC or just a recommendation...hrmm..I don't quite recall.
86</I>&gt;<i> &gt; At any rate...

93</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Actually I am currently using logonnews BUT logonnews /notices
94</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; connecting users and from my experience /notices go by without being
95</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; noticed where /msg's usually make a hell of a sound and really get the
96</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; users attention, thus the &quot;auto /msg when connecting?&quot; topic...

129</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;
130</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;
131</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; Hi, I've been wondering, I want to inform my users of the latest
132</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; viruses/trojans/client updates and generally all things
133</I>&gt;<i> pertaining to
134</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; irc. Now I could just put it in the /motd but who ever reads
135</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; the motd?
136</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; Is there some way I could get
137</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; chanserv/nickserv/memoserv/watever to /msg
138</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; each user when they connect with my pre-defined message?
139</I>&gt;<i> Or is there
140</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; such a thing as a NewsServ?
141</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt;
142</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &gt;&gt; Thanks :)
