"split the difference

51 </I>><i> services admins? something that will give all users a copy of

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