MemoServ Command Details
LIST
LIST [channel] [num | 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; memos that will not expire are marked with a "+". You can also specify a list of numbers, as in the example below:
Lists memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.
Example:
/msg MemoServ LIST 2-5,7-9
READ
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 with the LIST command.
Sends you the text of memo 3.
Example:
/msg MemoServ READ 3
FORWARD
FORWARD {num | list | ALL}
Forwards one or more of your memos to your E-mail address. You must have a valid E-mail address set for your nickname in order to use this command. Channel memos cannot be forwarded.
Forwards memo 3 to the email address associated with your nickname.
Example:
/msg MemoServ FORWARD 3
SAVE
SAVE [channel] {num | list}
Marks the given memo or memos as non-expiring. You can give either a single memo number or, as with the LIST command, a list of memos.
Sets memo 3 to no-expire.
Example:
/msg MemoServ SAVE 5
DEL
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 with the LIST command; you can also give the word ALL, which causes all of your memos to be deleted.
Warning: Once a memo is deleted, it cannot be recovered!
Deletes memo 3.
Example:
/msg MemoServ DEL 3
RENUMBER
RENUMBER
Renumbers your memo list, removing "holes" in the number sequence resulting from deleted memos.
Example:
/msg MemoServ RENUMBER
INFO
INFO [nickname | channel]
Without a parameter, displays information on the number of memos you have, how many of them are unread, how many total memos you can receive and when you are notified of new ones.
With a channel parameter, displays the same information for the given channel.
With a nickname parameter, displays the same information for the given nickname. This use limited to Services admins.
Example:
/msg MemoServ INFO Ketju
