- Usage: NOTE USER [&<passwd>] [+|-<flags>] [+|-<maxtime>]
- <nick!username@host> <msg>
- With USER you can queue a message in the server, and when the recipient
- signs on/off IRC, change nick or join any channel, note checks for
- valid messages. This works even if the sender is not on IRC. See HELP
- FLAGS for more info.
- Password can be up to ten characters long. You may specify password
- using the &, % or $ character. & is equal to to $, except working much
- better cause client use $ for other things...
- The % character works like &, except it makes the queuing silent. It
- makess also sense to use this without any following password.
- If any request queued is equal to any previous except time and maxtime,
- only maxtime is changed as specified. You then get "Joined" instead of
- "Queued".
- HELP FLAGS for info about flag settings. Username can be specified
- without @host. Do not use wildcards in username if you know what it
- is, even if it's possible. Max time before the server automatically
- remove the message from the queue, is specified with hours with a
- '-' character first, or days if a '+' character is specified, as
- -5 hours, or +10 days. Default maxtime is 7 days.
- Note: The received message is *directly* displayed on the screen,
- without the need for a read or remove request.
- NOTE USER &secret +WN +10 Wizible!jarlek@ifi.uio.no Howdy!
- is an example of a message sent only to the specified recipient if
- this person is an operator, and after receiving the message, the server
- sends a note message back to sender to inform about the delivery.
- NOTE USER +XR -5 Anybody <ctrl-G>
- is an example which makes the server to tell when Anybody signs
- on/off irc, change nick etc. This process repeats for 5 hours.
- NOTE USER +FL @*.edu *account*
- is an example which makes the server send a message back if any real-
- name of any user matches *account*. Message is sent back as note from
- server, or directly as a notice if sender is on IRC at this time.
