Try (in JavaScript), print(bbs.text(ReadYourMailNowQ)) - what does it print?

I can't imagine how it'd be related unless it has its own prompt built in. A
simply grep/search through its files could tell you.

The logon.cpp text comes from the text.dat. If the string is missing, then
you'll get the default from sbbs.dll (or libsbbs.so on *nix).
