A new token named'AdditionalGroupsAskLevel' in Config.bbs is used to declare theminimum access level required to be asked for additionalnewsgroups when posting new messages. Also, the 'a' flag in themessage base definition files should be used to designate thegroups that allow this feature. To post to additional groups aswell as the current one, the user should have access and postpermissions to all the groups specified.* A new token in Config.bbs 'EnableQuestionnaire' can be used toturn the questionnaire function on or off. If disabled, thequestionnaires can still be accessed from the Main Menu, butnew users will no longer be prompted for questionnairecompilation when they first log in.* Support for four different outbound mail address formats havebeen added. The new token 'MailboxAddressFormat' should beused to specify which format to use for outgoing email.* An RFC822 "Reply-To:" header has been added to outgoing newsarticles.* The separator character used in mailbox names is now definablefrom the Config.bbs file by modifying the value of the'MailboxNameSeparator' token. Although the dot '.' used byUnixBBS 1.02 is correct from the RFC point of view, it has beenreported to that some mailers are not compatible.* A minor bug in bbsmon was fixed that caused the input commandin chat or kill screen to be executed even if no ENTER key waspressed if the refresh timeout occurred while some value wasbeing entered on the input line. The bbsmon release id waschanged from 1.20 to 1.21.* A check on the device names given on bbsmon command line hasbeen added to make sure the names correspond to existingdevices.* A serious bug in the preferred newsgroup reading routine hasbeen fixed. Now the program shouldn't dump core when removingnewsgroup from the preferred list. Please note also thatdisabling the preferred newsgroup reading via the Config fileswitch will now save some run-time memory.* Followups to other newsgroups are now allowed when posting anarticle. A new token named 'FollowupToAskLevel' in Config.bbsis used to declare the minimum access level required to beasked for followups when posting new messages. Also, the 'w'flag in the message base definition files should be used todesignate the groups that allow this feature. To be able tofollow up to a certain newsgroup, the user should have accesspermissions to that group. The keyword 'poster' in either upperor lower case is parsed correctly and is used to redirectfollowups to the original article's poster by means of e-mail. NOTE: only a single newsgroup can be specified for the followup.
