DM> In Synchronet, there are 2 types of message scans:
DM> (N)ew message scan (the 'N' command from the main menu of the classic
DM> shell) (S)can for msgs to you (the 'S' command from the main menu)
DM> The (N) scan uses "new msg pointers" to find an display new messages while
DM> the (S) scan checks the 'read flag' on messages address to *you*
DM> (regardless of any "new-scan" pointer value).
DM> The &N command can be used to change each sub-boards "new-scan" config to
DM> one of 3 possible values: off, new msgs, new msgs to you only. These
DM> settings correspond to these values (for each user for each sub-board):
DM> Off: bits 0, 2, and 8 off
DM> New-msgs: Bits 0 and 2 (SCAN_CFG_NEW))
DM> New-msgs-to-you-only: Bits 0, 2, and 8 (SCAN_CFG_NEW|SCFG_CFG_YONLY)
DM> The &S command can be used to change each sub-boards "your-scan" config to
DM> one of 2 possible values: off and on. These settings correspond to these
DM> values (for each user for each sub-board):
DM> Off: (Bit 1 off)
DM> On: (Bit 1 on, SCAN_CFG_TOYOU)
I see - This is helpful, thanks.
