External logon events are configured in SCFG->External Programs->Online Programs
. Add/change a program with a "Execut on Event" set to "Logon" and voila: it exe
cutes during logon.

Find the ReadYourMailNowQ string in your ctrl/text.dat file and set it to an emt
py string ("") and voila: the prompt is eradicated.

You can write your logon module (e.g. JS) to do that and have it execute as a lo
gon event as previously described.
