Telegard Bulletin Board Software, v3.10 Confirmed bugs in Telegard 3.09.g2 Last Updated: 22 August 1998 The following report lists confirmed bugs in the Telegard 3.09.g2 release, as well as any known solutions and fix status. If you are experiencing any of these problems, please see the working solution. If you have a problem that is _not_ listed then please report it. I may have missed the original bug report, or I may have archived it away somewhere as 'solved' (incorrectly). Any solutions are temporary in nature only, and are meant to hold you over until the version noted in the status of the bug listing has been released. If there is no solution listed, we are aware of no solution to that particular problem. "THE LIST" 22. Moving file attachments and saying no to creating the directory would result in a RTE; Telegard will now instead abort the file move. Solution: NONE Reported: Gili Tzabari (Internet Email, 07/24/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/22/98) 21. Continous message read mode with Netmail or Email areas and the must delete email/netmail flag would cause an endless loop. Solution: NONE Reported: Gili Tzabari (Internet Email, 08/03/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/22/98) 20. Telegard will prompt to delete a message after replying even if it has already been deleted previously. Solution: NONE Reported: Gili Tzabari (Internet Email, 08/04/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/22/98) 19. Defining a new message path but answering no to the create directory query would cause a RTE when Telegard attempted to move the areas anyway. Solution: NONE Reported: Gili Tzabari (Internet Email, 08/11/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/22/98) 18. Validation levels triggered with message posts while editing the user from the message read prompt would cause the posted message to be displayed when redisplaying the message. Solution: NONE Reported: Gili Tzabari (Internet Email, 08/11/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/22/98) 17. Viewing logs with MCI codes would translate those MCI codes instead of displaying them as they're stored in the logs. Solution: NONE Reported: Mike Hodgson (Internet Email, 08/15/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/22/98) 16. Defining files to be sent to new user level accounts would send the message to an empty destination name. Solution: NONE Reported: Meelis Magi (Internet Email, 08/16/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/22/98) 15. Changing file *.FA* storage path does not move *.FA* area db files to the new storage path. Solution: NONE Reported: Meelis Magi (Internet Email, 08/01/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/02/98) 14. Internet email areas marked as 'Realname/handle' for posting type (anonymous type) will allow the user to read messages to/from one name, but only to their other name... an example: area default realname: - Users can read to/from realname - Users can only read to handle area default handle: - Users can read to/from handle - Users can only read to realname If the area is marked as Anonymous Type = None, then Telegard works as expected for reading mail FROM user. Solution: NONE Reported: Alan Ianson (TG_BETA, 08/02/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (08/02/98) 13. Menu input toggle fails once set to "Single Key". Solution: NONE Reported: David Stumpf (Internet Email, 07/24/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/24/98) 12. Menu command help lists random ASCII characters after the menu command identifier (ts: Infact, this is a bug in some generic conversion routines that may leak problems elsewhere that nobody has found yet... eek!) Solution: NONE Reported: Rick Malstrom (TG_SUPPORT, 07/14/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/20/98) 11. Menu command OK still has problems with subtracting values. Solution: NONE Reported: T.J. Tucker (Internet Email, 07/13/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/20/98) 10. Telegard/2 was creating DCBDUMP.DAT in the release version; this is debug information, and should be available only for beta versions. Solution: NONE Reported: Tim Strike Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/20/98) 9. Daily download restriction flag doesn't work for downlaods (it will always check the daily ratio, even if the user has the flag to ignore any daily download restrictions). Solution: NONE Reported: The Demon Xanth (Internet Email, 07/15/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/18/98) 8. Quote header is created for non-FSE messages too when it shouldn't be created (ts: missed some code... also it puts the quote initials on when it shouldn't...). Solution: NONE Reported: Gili Tzabari (Internet Email, 07/13/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/13/98) 7. RTE 200 is still occuring with telegard.exe and update.exe, but none of the other utilities. Solution: Acquire TPPATCH.EXE which will patch Borland Pascal (&TP) generated executables (patch telegard.exe and update.exe, the others are fine) Reported: Phil Dinolfo (Internet Email, 07/08/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/08/98) 6. Private message areas allow reading of messages without private bit enabled [ts: private areas should inherently always be private regardless of the bit setting, fixed...]. Solution: NONE Reported: Heart Angel (Internet Email, 07/08/98) Status: FIXED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/08/98) 5. Duplicate phone number scan is improperly finding caller-id numbers for out-of-area callers and recording them as duplicates.

IEMSI and ANSI detection use an abnormal amount of CPU time. Solution: NONE Reported: Gili Tzabari (Internet Email, 07/07/98) Status: PATCHED 3.09.g2-sp3 (07/07/98) 1.
