USING MEMOSERV

MemoServ is a utility allowing IRC users to send short messages to other IRC users, whether they are online at the time or not, or to channels for anyone with autoop access or higher. Both sender and recipient must have their nicknames registered with NickServ in order to send a memo, or if the recipiant is a channel, it must be registered with ChanServ.

COMMANDS


/msg MemoServ SEND {nick | channel} {memo-text}

Sends the named nick or channel a memo containing memo-text. When sending to a nickname, the recipient will receive a notice that he/she has a new memo. The target nickname/channel must be registered.


/msg MemoServ CANCEL {nick | channel}

Cancels the last memo you sent to the given nick or channel, provided it has not been read at the time you use the command.


/msg MemoServ LIST {channel} {list | new}

Lists any memos you currently have. With new, lists only new (unread) memos. Unread memos are marked with a "*" to the left of the memo number. You can also specify a list of numbers, as in the example below:
            LIST 2-5,7-9
                        Lists memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.


/msg MemoServ READ {channel} {num | list | last | new}

Sends you the text of the memos specified. If last is given, sends you the memo you most recently received. If new is given, sends you all of your new memos. Otherwise, sends you memo number num. You can also give a list of numbers, as in this example:
             READ 2-5,7-9
                        Displays memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.


/msg MemoServ DEL {channel} {num | list | all}

Deletes the specified memo or memos. You can supply multiple memo numbers or ranges of numbers instead of a single number, as in the second example below.
If all is given, deletes all of your memos.
Examples:

DEL 1
Deletes your first memo.

DEL 2-5,7-9
Deletes memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.


/msg MemoServ SET option parameters

Sets various memo options. option can be one of:

NOTIFY    Changes when you will be notified about new memos (only for nicknames)
LIMIT        Sets the maximum number of memos you can receive

NOTIFY:
{ON | LOGON | NEW | OFF}

Changes when you will be notified about new memos:
ON             You will be notified of memos when you log on, when you unset /AWAY,
                   and when they are sent to you.
LOGON     You will only be notified of memos when you log on or when you unset
                   /AWAY.
NEW          You will only be notified of memos when they are sent to you.
OFF           You will not receive any notification of memos.

ON is essentially LOGON and NEW combined.

LIMIT:
{channel} limit

Sets the maximum number of memos you (or the given channel) are allowed to have. If you set this to 0, no one will be able to send any memos to you. However, you cannot set this any higher than 20.
