+[3:31pm] <work> actions to make sure that they do not interrupt the normal

+
+And of course it still does it on mIRC as well.
+
+So my tests show that this bug is in fact an ircservices bug, and not
+related to any mirc errors. Testing in 3 other clients all performed the
+exact same way, and duplicated the exact same results. The source notice of
+course didn't have the ":" in it, however it appeared at the same location
+for all 3 of the clients.
+
+Thanks for any help you may be able to offer,
+

+</I>><i>Hello... I have noticed a little error, and I just wanted to post here
+</I>><i>to see if anyone had already posted regarding it, or if it was the first
+</I>time.
+><i>
+</I>><i>I run an IRC Network with Unreal3.2.2b and ircservices-5.0.41
+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>When I send a global notice that is fairly long it appears that the
+</I>><i>character ":" shows up in the notice. If I were to just sent a global
+</I>><i>notice as an oper, Unreal would cut the message off before the ":"
+</I>><i>would appear, so this only occurs with services.
+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>I have noticed it in Channel Join Notices, Network Connect Notices, and
+</I>><i>Global Notices. Below is an example:
+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>-------------------------- Sending the notice with OperServ global
+</I>><i>-------------------------
+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>[11:30pm] -Global- [Network Notice] Our network has been experiencing a
+</I>><i>major increase of unattended bots connecting. We are taking many
+</I>><i>defensive actions to make sure that they do not interrupt the normal
+</I>><i>activity of the network. If you receive a CTCP LAG, please ignore it,
+</I>><i>as it is our Opers running :a scan to detect malicious bots. If you
+</I>><i>have any questions, please join #Help and speak to an Oper. - XanaX, Sr.
+</I>Network Admin.
+><i>
+</I>><i>------------------------ Sending the same notice as an oper, and not
+</I>><i>with services -----------------------
+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>[11:32pm] -XanaX- [Network Notice] Our network has been experiencing a
+</I>><i>major increase of unattended bots connecting. We are taking many
+</I>><i>defensive actions to make sure that they do not interrupt the normal
+</I>activity of the network.

+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>----------------------------------
+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>As you can see, Unreal cuts the message off when I send it as an oper.
+</I>><i>It doesnt get past the word "speak". But if you notice in the notice
+</I>><i>sent my Services, there is "Opers running :a scan to detect". The : is
+</I>><i>definatly not in my notice.
+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>Any help or assistance regarding this would be great. Just thought it
+</I>><i>should be noted for any future releases.
+</I>><i>
+</I>><i>Thank you for your hard work & development of open-sourced software.
