MemoServ is a utility allowing IRC users to send short messages to other IRC users, whether they are online at the time or not, or to channels(*). Both the sender's nickname and the target nickname or channel must be registered in order to send a memo. Type /msg MemoServ HELP COMMANDS for a list of MemoServ commands; to use a command, type /msg MemoServ command, or for more information on a command, type /msg MemoServ HELP command.

| SEND | |
| Sends the named nickname or channel a memo containing memo-text. When sending to a nickname, the recipient will receive a notice that he/she has a new memo. The target nickname/channel must be registered. | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV SEND {nickname | channel} memo-text
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV SEND JohnDoe Hey, What's up?
|
| LIST | |
| 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. You can also specify a list of numbers, as in the example below: | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV LIST [channel] [num | list | NEW]
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV LIST 2-5,7-9
|
| READ | |
| 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. | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV READ [channel] {num | list | LAST | NEW}
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV READ 1
|
| FORWARD | |
| 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. | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV FORWARD {num | list | ALL}
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV FORWARD 1
|
| DEL | |
| 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. | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV DEL [channel] {num | list | ALL}
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV DEL 1
|
| SET NOTIFY | |
| Changes when you will be notified about new memos: | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV SET NOTIFY {ON | LOGON | NEW | OFF}
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV SET NOTIFY on
|
| SET FORWARD | |
| Sets whether MemoServ automatically forwards to your E-mail address memos sent to you. When set to ON, memos sent to your nickname will instead be forwarded to the E-mail address registered with your nickname. COPY is similar, but also causes MemoServ to save a copy of the memo to read online. When set to OFF, your memos will be stored online as usual. Even if you set this option to ON, you may still receive memos online if Services is unable to forward them to you. | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV SET FORWARD {ON | COPY | OFF}
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV SET FORWARD on
|
| INFO | |
| 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 parameter, displays the same information for the given channel. | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV INFO [channel]
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV INFO
|
| IGNORE | |
| Controls the list of "ignored" users; users whose nickname or user@host mask match an entry on this list are not allowed to send you memos. ADD adds the given nickname or user@host mask to your ignore list, and DEL removes the given nickname or mask from the list; LIST displays your current ignore list. | |
| Syntax: |
/MEMOSERV IGNORE {ADD | DEL | LIST} [nickname | mask]
|
| Example: |
/MEMOSERV IGNORE AfterX
