sends a short message (telegram) to the poster of the vote. It also confirms
this is not a duplicate vote.

not the sender net *type* (the net-type is passed-in). This did result in a
crash when parsing a voting.dat that contained a networked vote. Oops.

- get_msg_index()
- get_msg_header()
- get_all_msg_headers()
these functions all accept a new (optonal, last) bool argument "include_votes"
which defaults to false. So if for some reason, you want to load votes, just
pass an additional 'true' argument.
ToDo: polls and vote tallying.
At least for now, existing JS stuff that uses the MsgBase object won't get
messed up by the new voting messages.

correctly.

These messages would actually already be ignored due to the lack of a message
body, but by checking the message attributes (and redundant msg 'type'), the
msg headers for votes & polls aren't even loaded into memory. SBBSecho v2
should work just fine with msg bases that contain votes or polls as well.

- Sub-boards can be disalbled for voting in SCFG

Removed un-implemented "kill msg when read" sub-board option.

- Users can be restricted from voting with the 'V' restriction
- Sub-boards can be disalbled for voting in SCFG
- VOTING.DAT can be include/excluded from QWK packets via user cfg
  (when a VOTING.DAT is received in a REP, the user cfg flag is auto-set)
- Adds several new text.dat lines (if not present in yours, uses the default)

What's not yet implemented:
- Notification of votes on your posted messages
- Method to view/audit all votes
- Polling
- Any special handling to auto-exclude votes from msg-related JavaScripts

The beginnings of an SMB-based voting system - very experimental:
The concept is that a "vote" message can be used to reply to:
1. A normal message, as either an upvote or a downvote, ala social media
2. A poll, polls can either allow a single choice answer or multiple answers
Vote messages won't be visible as normal messages (e.g. when reading messages
online) and SMB processing software (e.g. SBBSecho) should ignore these
messages because they have no body text.
Polls are going to need more work, but the idea is to have the poll question as
a single (newly defined) hfield and the possible answers as dfields.

mode for a specified message base (mail or sub-board). This logic exists in
many other files and can now be consolidated using this single function.

Use fopen/fprintf (buffered writes) rather than open/write.
Use safe_snprintf() and SAFEPRINTF for safe string formatting.
Use a variable for line-endings (in preparation for support for Unix-style log
files for those sysops that prefer them).
hacklog() now supports a NULL 'text' argument.

loginFailure() now handles a NULL password argument correctly.

file (in .can file format) which lists IP addresses or hostnames which will
be exempt from temporary bans or permanent filters.

Added (new) '-a' option to dump the parsed area file (areas.bbs) to stdout
(useful for debugging area file issues).
Only age-filtered messages can be relayed to downlinks now (not twit-filtered
messages).

Also minor optimization: don't call mkpath() unless isdir() returns false

be 0 (at least on Windows), but readuserdat() treated 0 as an invalid file
descriptor and opened the file again. The probably is the reason for the
reported issues with the Windows GUI user editor not being able to save
changes to the user database. Bug introduced in Dec-2015 (rev 1.164 of this
file).

Added support for "%RESCAN <echo-tag>" at the request of Al Prunty, because he
asked for this "new feature".

Filtered messages include messages not imported due to age, twitlist, dupes,
etc. To change this behavior, set RelayFilteredMsgs=true in your sbbsecho.ini.

(35 chars). Use macros for maximum internal code length and echo tag lengths.

1. Reported by Accession and Rastus: when linking/unlinking echoes via AreaFix,
    all the linked node addresses (in the areas.bbs file) would be changed to a
    garbage address (e.g. "16720:17235/19521.19551").
    Bug introduced in sbbsecho.c rev 3.13 (May-9-2016).

2. Reported by Accession:
    Extraneous debug-level log output (a log line for each echo that exists in
    the area file): "Adding areas for <addr> to path/to/areas.bbs" and
    "Removnig areas for <addr> from path/to/areas.bbs".
    Introduced way back in sbbsecho.c rev 1.249 (Apr-17-2014).
    Now, a single debug-level log entries is added per areafix change request
    for all adds (area linking) and then all deletions (area unlinking) which
    makes much more sense.

3. Observed in the code:
    When using AreaFix to modify the area file (areas.bbs), if a modified
    echo's internal code was 16 characters, exaclty, then no space would be
    added between the internal code and the echotag.
    This bug has apparently been possible since the introduction of internal
    code prefixes in 2003.

the LogTimeFormat key in sbbsecho.ini. The default is "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S".
If you want the old (v2) time-stamp format, set this value to
"%m/%d/%y %H:%M:%S". Any/all valid strftime() specifiers may be used.

this is not a totally unexpected occurrance. No need to fill up the error.log.

Windows build of addfiles, et al.

- "Configure" menus (not working since the IPv6 commit) - both IPv4 and IPv6
   addresses may be specified (comma-separated), or multiple IPv4 addresses!
- Added new "Temp Ban" settings to Properites->Security tab.
- Added context (tab) sensitive "Help" button to Properties page
  (links to section on relevant wiki page).
- Every log window has a new right-click pop-up menu with 2 options:
  1. Copy Selected
  2. Copy All
  Hopefully it's obvious what these menu options do. :-)

- Never ban the server's own address
- Log the login attempt and last name attempted
- Use a compressed version of the HH:MM:SS "time remaining" portion of the log
  message

LoginAttemptBanDuration value. Allows short-hand multipliers: YWDHMS
(year, week, day, hour, minute, second) and fractions (e.g. "2.5H").
