34 <PRE>Geez, all I wanted to know is if there was such a function, I didnt hang
35 a sign round my neck saying &quot;I WANT TO BREAK THE CODE OF THE RFC&quot; in big
36 read letters now did I? If it says that in the RFC I will happily forget
37 about it and continue using logonnews.

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

114 </I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Hi, I've been wondering, I want to inform my users of the latest
