			MBSE BBS V0.51.0 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.
		 X = Will not be done unless it's really needed.

everything:
	L: Consider XML format for databases.

	L: Implement IPv6.

	L: Document error return codes in the manual.

	N: Make filesystem space check run only on mbse used filesystems.

install:
	N: On some (unsupported) distro's with xinetd the installation script
	   also adds entries to inetd.conf.

libdiesel.a:
	U: Processed stringlines containing unbalanced " characters are not
	   processed, instead the previous macro value will be returned.

mbsebbs:
	N: Test with valgrind.

	X: Better word wrapping or paragraph justification in editor.

	X: E-mail downloads with e-mail verification.

	N: OLR, implement file requests.

	N: Only count posted messages in local mail areas.

	L: ChangeHandle, allow own unix name as handle.

	X: OLR: tagged areas must have 3 states, off, on or personal only.

	X: OLR: implement limit date function.

	X: OLR: include private email area in download packets.

	X: OLR: implement some global settings from the offline configuration.

	X: OLR: implement keywords and filters.

	X: OLR: check qwke extensions.

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

	N: Reimplememnt CHRS kludge.

	N: There are some bugs in the bbs list menu. Make it a door?

newuser:
	N: Test with valgrind.

	L: Allow handles to be the same as the unixname.


mbtask:
	N: Add a thread that keeps track of disk usage of all partitions used
	   by mbse, update partition list after setup changes. Make the info
	   available for all other programs so they know very fast if enough
	   space is still available.


mbfido:
	N: The elist rules files are named (8.3) areaname.rul where areaname
	   is the first 8 characters of the area name and we use the full name
	   only. Make sure both namings are accepted?

	N: Count posted messages during mailscan.

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

	L: Implement netmail K/S flag to mark netmail Deleted.

	N: Implement file requests for directory nodes.

	L: Add %from command to areamgr/filemgr.

	L: Add netmail notification of changed areas.

	L: Maybe store insecure echomail in badmail area.

	L: Maybe store echomail for unknown areas in badmail area.

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

	N: Force processing of arealists so that all tags are forced to
	   uppercase. Seems to give problems in some nets.

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

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

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

	N: Add statistic mail messages.

	N: With auto created areas golded.inc is not adjusted to the new
	   setup.

	N: After readalias we need to free the alias list when mbfido ends.

	N: When a file with the same name is received in a tic area more than
	   once (virus defs for example) the file is written multiple times
	   in the toberep database and will be multiple times announced.

mbcico:
	N: Further investigate binkp tty_error hangup.

	L: Implement binkp option ND.

	N: Implement PLZ turn off m_get command.

	N: Make workaround for binkp bug in Irex 2.24 upto 2.29

mbfile:
	L: Add a check to see if the magic filenames are (still) valid.

	L: Update <filespec> <area> <-touch>

	L: Rearc <area>

	L: Possibility to skip file areas from checking and reindexing.

mbmsg:
	N: With the post command if a netmail area is used the netmail area
	   will cause trouble later, should be blocked to be used on netmail
	   areas.

mbaff:
	L: Add setup parameters for minimum length of keywords.

mbindex:
	X: Add usernames index.

mbnewusr:
	L: On NetBSD, supress error message from mbpasswd.
	   -- Currently no access to my old Sun Sparcstation.

mbsetup:
	N: Add a check for double areatag names.

	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.

	N: Add switch for file area to skip checking and indexing.

	N: Add menu switches in nodes/groups to select/deselect all groups
	   at once.

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

	X: Generate crossreference document:
	   File Areas      <=> BBS groups
	   File Areas      <=> Newfiles groups
	   Filefind flags  <=> TIC Areas
	   Echomail        <=> Mail groups
