[About The Guide]
CHECK FOR MAIL AT LOG-ON, when enabled, will force the
system to scan the message-base for new mail addressed to
the user (regardless of what area it is in, provided the
user has access to that area) at log-on.
The FULL MAIL CHECK option determines the type of mail check
that is performed. A full check scans from the start to the
end of the message-base for all mail addressed to the user
that does not have the "Received" flag set. If you set the
option to "Off", the message base is only checked from the
last message that the user read. While this is much faster,
there is the possibility that some mail may be skipped if
the user elected not to read his/her mail during the last
logon.
The QUOTE STRING is a highlight character that RemoteAccess
will place in front of any message that is replied to. For
example, a message quoted using " > " as the quoter would
look like:
> I have been using RemoteAccess for 2 months now and
> love it!
I have to agree with you there, Tom. Flexibility-wise
you just can't beat it.
A '@' character in the quote string will be translated into
the initials of the person whose message is being quoted.
If the RENUMBER THRESHOLD option is set to a non-zero value,
RAMSG will automatically renumber the entire message
database when the highest message number reaches the
predetermined value.
EXTERNAL EDITOR. This is the DOS command line that will be
used to activate a full screen message editor, if one is
installed. This option is available only to users of ANSI
graphics. The full screen editor is a third-party package
that enables messages to be entered in a "word-processing"
environment, with cursor movement and text formatting
ability. QuickEd is one such package that interfaces
directly to RemoteAccess. This command line may contain any
of the metacommands listed in the description of the type 7
menu command, including *M to swap RemoteAccess out of
memory before the editor is loaded.
Set the ORIGIN LINE to the message you would like appended
to all outgoing EchoMail messages. This will take effect in
all areas except where you have entered a specific origin
line for a particular area.
The REPLY HEADER is displayed at the top of a message when a
user replies to a message that was not originally addressed
to him/her. The following macro characters may be used:
@ - Person the original message was addressed to,
# - Person who posted the original message,
` - Date of the original message,
~ - Time of the original message.
The last three options in this submenu relate to sending
netmail messages as "crash", or immediately, and attaching
files to netmail messages.
