			MBSE BBS V1.0.1 TODO list.
			--------------------------

	These are a list of things that must be implemented one way or
	another. Some things are urgent and necessary to operate the bbs
	without human intervention, others are just for comfort, or nice.
	I think this list will always contain items, I only hope the urgent
	matters will be removed.
	Note that most goodies are still in my mind instead of in this file.
	Classes: U = Urgent.
		 N = Normal, second priority.
                 L = Cosmetic or nice to have.
	         W = Feature request.

everything:
	N: In BSO the i flavor should have been d flavor.

	W: Increase size of Unix usernames > 8. The limit on Slackware is 32
	   characters, defined in utmp.h in UT_NAMESIZE

	W: Add personal message area.

	N: The ttyinfo.tty field is too short for NetBSD.

	W: Implement topic groups for file and message areas, with access level
	   control.

	W: Switch to MySQL as database backend. This can also solve some other
	   limitations. A php API should be added too.

mbsebbs:
	W: OLR, implement file requests.

	N: Only count posted messages in local mail areas.

	N: OLR: qwk, check netmail entered from reader, fido address missing?


mbfido:
	N: Don't log an error if no file_id.diz is found.

	W: Check all .flo files for dead attachments.

	W: Check all .flo files for to old attachments.

	W: Count posted messages during mailscan.

	W: Code cleanup and make a structure in this program. Remove duplicate
	   or similar functions.

	N: Process GoldED filerequest netmails with the filereq flag set, we
	   should create a .req file with the contents of the subject line.

	N: Process To: and Cc: lines in messages gated from Fido to Internet.

	N: Investigate a method to scan and filter messages using the gateway.

	W: Add macro's for stats of all months.

	W: Add %from command to areamgr/filemgr.

	W: Add netmail notification of changed areas.

	W: Make it possible to only virus scan the complete archives.

	W: Let mbfido areas with a special switch update area descriptions.

	W: Send rulefile via netmail for each new connected mail area.

	W: Send notifications to downlinks about changed areas from uplink.

	W: Add statistic mail messages. Via AMC??

	N: Hatch statistics are not updated.

	W: Copy personal mail to a personal message area.

	W: Someday make retoss from bad possible (volonteers?).

	W: AreaMgr %rescan should auto connect disconnected areas.

mbcico:
	W: Implement binkp option ND and NDA.

mbnntp:
	N: fetched mail doesn't get the status Rcvd if it was for the user.

	N: Do a better job for message linking by newsclients. This is a
	   problem because we use the message numbers and messages are
	   sometimes renumbered. This will make some clients try to fetch
	   the wrong messages because they cache the message id's.

	N: Lastread pointers are not updated.

	N: Investigate a method to scan and filter messages using the gateway.

mbaff:
	W: Rewrite filefind search algorithm.

mbsetup:
	U: Menu 7.x.4.1 password length too large?

	U: Add check for empty data files.

	N: Add a check for double areatag names. See MySQL plan.

	N: Use some sort of sorting for the system aka's and make sure the
	   main aka with zone's is listed first. Having zone's mixed gives
	   too high outbound stats and the outbound is scanned multiple times.

	N: Put ZMH fields in the network setup for each zone. Currently Z1-6.
	   See MySQL plan.

	W: Add global setup in menus 9.1 and 10.1 at least to change uplink
	   data.

	W: See if a check can be made in file groups setup for the areas file
	   format, if a filegate list is installed and the filegate switch
	   setting is wrong, a lot of wrong areas will be created.
