  35 <PRE>I'm reporting this as a possible bug:
  36
  37 When a nickname is registered and AUTH is enabled
  38
  39     * Your nick is now XYZ
  40 -&gt; PRIVMSG NickServ :REGISTER abc123xyz <A HREF="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices-coding">your at email-address.com</A>
  41    -NickServ- Nickname XYZ has been registered to you.
  42    -NickServ- An authentication code for your nickname has been sent to
  43 <A HREF="http://www.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices-coding">your at email-address.com.</A>
  44    -NickServ- When you receive this message, type /msg NickServ AUTH code
  45 (replace code with the authentication code in the message) to complete your
  46 nickname registration.
  47    -NickServ- Your password is abc123xyz -- remember this for later use.
  48 -&gt; NICK ABC
  49    * Your nick is now ABC
  50 -&gt; NICK XYZ
  51    * Your nick is now XYZ
  52    * XYZ sets mode: +r
  53 -&gt; WHOIS XYZ
  54 and it contains:  XYZ has identified for this nick
  55
  56 Notice I didn't identify, and yet i'm classified as identified with +r.
  57
  58 So in other words, the nickname is fully functional even though I have not
  59 yet AUTH'ed, all it needs is a nickchange and it is concidered registered.
  60 This could pose as fatal in situations involving spambots. For example: the
  61 spambot registers its nick with a fake e-mail address, changes its nick, and
  62 then changes it back, and its automatically registered, then it can privmsg
  63 registered nicks with spam, join +R channels, etc. etc.
  64
  65 Hope this helps --
