BM>Greg, this is something that Bobby Forgione has been asking about for
BM>some time, and I would like to second his motion.
 
BM>RyBBS always had the ability (and still does) to search email and other
BM>mail, ie. all areas, for new personal messages. You gave us the handy
BM>startup.bbs option, QUERY MAIL, but there's a problem with using QUERY 
AIL
BM> as it works now.
 
BM>This gives the users the ability to skip checking the email areas in
BM>addition to the other mail areas. Using QUERY MAIL results in it being 
ery
BM> hard to contact users via email. My request, like Bobby's, is to enable 
n
BM> some way that users have to scan the email base for new messages even if
BM>QUERY MAIL is on.
 
Thanks Bill
   Maybe if we can get enough of use to request this as well
as the QWK FORCE ON a conference, maybe Greg will put these
options in for us.
