can read your mail, since you cannot read any messages from
the Message Menu.

personal message, select the Message Menu by typing M at the
Main Menu. Type E, then press ENTER to select the Sysop
conference. Enter the name of the recipient (or “Sysop”), the
subject, and the message text. Press ESCAPE 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 ENTER.

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.
