Email Memos on freenode

Posted on June 7th, 2008 in Uncategorized | 1 Comment »

Email Memos are one of the many great new features in use on freenodes shiny new services.

Memoserv is a widely underused feature of IRC, and one which I find very helpful.  Memoserv allows you to send a “memo” to a person, if they are either not online, or away from their keyboard.

The command is simply:
/msg memoserv send <nick> <your message>

Memoserv will store the message, and when the user connects to freenode, and identifies with services, they will see they have a message(s).

With freenode’s new services, freenode users have the option to have memos forwarded to their email address (of course, you need to set an email address on your nick).

To use this option, simply use the command:
/msg NickServ SET EMAILMEMOS ON

You’ll receive an email that looks like:

Vorian,

You have a new memo from Vorian.

Thank you for your interest in the freenode IRC network.

If you frequent freenode, I hope you find this function as useful as I do. :)
