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
"I WANT TO BREAK THE CODE OF THE RFC
" 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.

112 </I>>>>>><i>

114 </I>>>>>><i> Hi, I've been wondering, I want to inform my users of the latest
115 </I>>>>>><i> viruses/trojans/client updates and generally all things pertaining
116 </I>>>>>><i> to
117 </I>>>>>><i> irc. Now I could just put it in the /motd but who ever reads

119 </I>>>>>><i> Is there some way I could get
120 </I>>>>>><i> chanserv/nickserv/memoserv/watever to /msg

122 </I>>>>>><i> such a thing as a NewsServ?
