01-23-94 ■ Beta Release - IAB4E version 1.10A
- Added another parameter to the IAB.CNF file.
Line 12 is now the "UUCP Mode" toggle switch.
Some sysops run systems where the word "UUCP"
must appear in the message "To:" header and the
real address appears in this format: "To: <address>"
in the first line of the message body.
Setting IAB to "UUCP Mode" (Line 12 of IAB.CNF to 1)
will accommodate sysops with this requirement.
Setting Line 12 of IAB.CNF to 0 will set IAB to it's
normal (non-UUCP) mode.
UUCP Mode will function properly regardless of whether
the user selects an existing entry from the address
book or enters it on the command line as follows:
E <address>
In addition, new address entries entered at the
Enter=<list>? prompt will be properly stored in the
user's address book (if they have AutoRecord turned
ON).
Even while running in non-UUCPMode, users can
still invoke UUCPMode from the command line by
typing:
E UUCP <address>
or
E UUCP <address_1>;<address_2>;<address_n>
This allows a user to address a message to multiple
users at the same time from the command line and have
IAB properly format the message "To:" header and
the required first line in the body of the
message.
Added the UUCPMode Status to the STATUS REPORT.
Changed the [N]ext Page and [P]rev Page prompts
to [+] Page, [-] Page or [+]/[-] Page to prevent
the command line overruns (line wrapping) that was
occurring.
01-20-94 ■ Beta Release - IAB4E version 1.10
- Released the IAB "E" Command replacement
version for use with PCBoard v15.1 Beta
01-14-94 release of PPLC v2.00
- NOTE: This version will ONLY work with PCBoard
version 15.1 beta versions compiled after
01-14-94.
- Added the ability to shut off generation of user
datafile backups ($Uxxxxxx.BAK files). See config
file notes above: "Line 10" config parameter.
Actually the BAK file is still created but is
immediately deleted once an updated $Uxxxxxx.DAT
has been successfully saved to disk.
Default = 1 (retain backup files)
* Option requires registered version
- Added the ability to increase the capacity of each
address book from the default of 100 entries, to
whatever value the SYSOP sees fit (PCBoard and
memory permitting). See config file notes above:
"Line 11" config parameter.
Default = 100 entries/user
* Option requires registered version
- Modified the command prompts to display the
Next and Prev Page commands more prominently
(in red) - on both the main and submenus when
appropriate.
- Fixed a bug where the screen would reset to page
1 when a user entered a new entry while displaying
any page other than page 1.
- Added additional information to the IAB Status Report
for the SYSOP. These additional data items only
display to the SYSOP (User #1 in the User File).
- Added a Capacity entry to the IAB Status report
(visible to all users) that displays the total
number of possible entries.
11-21-93 ■ Non-Release - IAB4E version 1.02
- Increased the length of the address prompt to
accommodate larger address names.
- Added the optional SYSOP customizable E.PPS to speed
up program load times in non-Internet EMail
conferences. See the E.PPS file for tech notes
and instructions on use.
11-14-93 ■ Maint Release - IAB version 1.01
- Added the IAB4E PPE and DOC files to the package.
These are used to run IAB as a PCBoard 'E'command
replacement (in CMD.LST) instead of a prompt replacement
- Fixed a typo in the "MAINT QUIET" parameter
11-09-93 ■ Initial Release - IAB version 1.00
