    From rswindell@1:103/705 to CVS commit on Mon Dec 2 22:02:16 2019
    exec newslink.js 1.111 1.112
    Update of /cvsroot/sbbs/exec
    In directory cvs:/home/rswindell/sbbs/exec

    Modified Files:
    newslink.js
    Log Message:
    Added support for new configuration keyword: auto_areas
    When present, all sub-boards flagged as Internet/NNTP networked will automatically be included as a newslink'd area (no "area" line needed).
    If the sysop wants to override the configured/default newsgroup name,
    the flags or the attachment directory for a specific sub-board/area, they
    can still use the "area" keyword to specify those values for a sub-board.
    Fixed the long standing UNRECOGNIZED KEYWORD: null error upon a blank
    line. Apparently truncsp(null) will return "null".

    Twitlist optimization (don't re-read over and over)
    Also added debug-level log messages for message loop rejection
    reasons, for John Dovey (GATOFUEG).

    BTW, thank you for this. I completely reinstalled my Ubuntu box, and redid the SBBS from scratch and somewhere in that process my problem was fixed. No idea what it was now though <shrug>

    Add support for optiona "approved" option to be specify moderator's email addrApparently required by some news servers.As requested via IRC:<poindexter> Hi all, I've got a weird request. I'd like to post to a newsgroup that relies on automoderation. You need to add an approved: header to any posting to have it be accepted - keeps the non-techie riffraff away. is there a way to do that with newslink.js?

    Increase the connect timeout from 10 seconds (the default) to 30 seconds

    Should probably make this a command-line option too, but this will do for
    now for Ragnarok to test eternal-september with.
