dropping any messages that meet the filter criteria. As it happens, this
can result in downloading a packet that tosses NO messages because the few
messages that are present are all filtered. You can see it happen if you
watch /var/log/sbbs. This just happened to me. (Hi, Jazzman!)
Suppose you UPLOADED your twitlist with your .REP packet. Then the host
system could pack your .QWK packet, filtering _at_source_ so as to save
sending unwanted packets in the first place. The twitlist could be kept
as twitlist.#### or something (#### being the user-number that Jas Thud is
so eager to change) for future use, until a replacement twitlist is sent
in a later .REP packet.

I'm posting this from Google Groups (because I'm travelling), so sorry
if this is going to the wrong sub.
I'm using Michael Ryan's (tracker1) telnet verifier script and it
rocks! It or something like it would be a great feature to see
integrated into Synchronet someday, imho.
It's nice that someone can send themselves their code, get their e-mail
and then paste it in and be done. Sending and then validating is a
quick 1 - 2 process.
Only one little problem... if the user needs to change their e-mail
address, the user is kinda left in la-la land as to what to do next,
because the menu options aren't available anymore -- at least on my
system. I know from testing that when the e-mail address is changed,
the code is sent immediately, but the user can't use any of the menu
options after changing their e-mail address. They have to reconnect
before they can validate - and there is no message stating they have
to...
If the user inputs the correct address from the beginning though, it's
a slick script.

Awesome idea DM! WIth so many folks using packet radio now'days, adding
such things to Sync to help Hams might bring more folks on board.
