Reading a Message
When you log on, the BBS will tell you if you have a personal message (mail). At the prompt Would
you like to read it now?, type R to read the message. This is the only point at which you can read
your mail, since you cannot read any messages from the Message Menu.
Leaving a Message
The Multi-Tech BBS has no public discussion areas. To leave a personal message, select the Mes-
sage Menu by typing M at the Main Menu. Type E, then press RETURN to select the Sysop confer-
ence. Enter the name of the recipient (or “Sysop”), the subject, and the message text. Press ES-
CAPE to finish, then type S to save the message and exit. To abort the message at any point, leave
any of the fields blank and press RETURN.
Bulletins
When you log on, the BBS will ask if you would like to view the bulletin menu. The bulletins are
menu-driven; to read a bulletin, enter its number. You can also access the bulletins by typing B at the
Main Menu.
