Hello g00r00!

Thank you for your reply!

Thanks, I'm adding /NOFROM to my flags now!

Although "not from me" (/NOFROM) is not the same as "only to me" (a suggested /ONLYTO) -- as /NOFROM would miss any messages from myself to myself, e.g. test messages to myself in an echomail area -- it'll have to do for now.

And if you would happen to implement an /ONLYTO flag in the future, please let me know and I'll happily try it out. :)

Thanks! I'll adjust the Sysop ACS for the local message areas.

Again, thank you for your help -- it is much appreciated! Trying to get most things "right" here. :)

I spent yesterday editing prompts etc., and am now thinking of perhaps using theme colors for menu buttons and prompts in my theme... we'll see. :)

Best regards
