You can simply do this by adding these to your welcome mecca file,etc.etc. This mec code raises the priv. level to (lets say access level called MNormal ) if baud rate is lower than 9600.

You may be able to do this without using mex or mecca, in the batch file that loads Maximus from your mailer put an IF command. If you're using FD with the create batch file method: if %1==2400 goto moretime max -t60 -b%1%5 -p..... :moretime max -t100 -b%1%5 -p..... On the other hand it would give them a fixed amount of time even if the mailer was going to do an event or something and needed them off before that. This is probably a dumb way to do it because it can't be adjusted for priveledge levels and things either. ... 2400 baud makes you want to get out and push. --- Maximus 3.01 * Origin: The Ultimate (3:771/340) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 174 MUFFIN (MAXIMUS) Ref: F2200007Date: 02/01/98 From: SVEN BUERGER Time: 03:02pm \/To: TOMMI PITKANEN (Read 0 times) Subj: 00index.txt/html Hi !
