    Howdy,

    I think this might be a bug?

    I'm logged into talisman as "deon" as a regular user (I pretty much havent changed any defaults other than echoareas - so deon has sec level 10.)

    clrghouz sent a netmail back to talisman to "new sysop" (as I expected), but logged in as deon, the netmail area shows "new" messages, but I cannot read it.
    Its probably right that I shouldnt read it, since it technically isnt to me, but it might be confusing when "New Mail Scan" and the "Index Reader" shows a new message that cannot be read.

    (Also the user "new sysop" doesnt exist.)

    I have to say though, I've been tripped up a few times on how fast talisman is. A couple of times I thought binki & postie did nothing, when it fact it processed or sent a message!

    Yes, that caught me out a couple of times, too. :D

    Not really... I know it's not ideal, but that's how it works.

    I'd prefer to roll netmail into the email system, but that might be a bit of work, and .... :)
