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.

MemoServ's commands include:

    SEND Send a memo to a nick or channel.
    CANCEL Cancel last memo you sent.
    LIST List your memos.
    READ Read a memo or memos.
    DEL Delete a memo or memos.
    SET Set options related to memos.
Please consult this document or type, while you are connected to IRC, /msg MemoServ HELP command for help on any of the above commands.

(*) By default, any user with at least level 10 access on a channel can read that channel's memos. This can be changed with the ChanServ LEVELS command.


*MEMOSERV* SEND {Menu}

Syntax: SEND {nick | channel} memo-text

Sends the named nick 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.


*MEMOSERV* CANCEL {Menu}

Syntax: CANCEL {nick | channel}

Cancels the last memo you sent to the given nick or channel, provided it has not been read at the time you use the command.


*MEMOSERV* LIST {Menu}

Syntax: LIST [channel] [list | NEW]

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:

    LIST 2-5,7-9
    Lists memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.

*MEMOSERV* READ {Menu}

Syntax: READ [channel] {num | list | LAST | NEW}

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 in this example:

    READ 2-5,7-9
    Displays memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.

*MEMOSERV* DEL {Menu}

Syntax: DEL [channel] {num | list | ALL}

Deletes the specified memo or memos. You can supply multiple memo numbers or ranges of numbers instead of a single number, as in the second example below.

If ALL is given, deletes all of your memos.

Examples:

    DEL 1
    Deletes your first memo.

    DEL 2-5,7-9
    Deletes memos numbered 2 through 5 and 7 through 9.

*MEMOSERV* SET {Menu}

*MEMOSERV* SET NOTIFY {Menu}

Syntax: SET NOTIFY {ON | LOGON | NEW | OFF}

Changes when you will be notified about new memos:

    ON You will be notified of memos when you log on, when you unset /AWAY, and when they are sent to you.
    LOGON You will only be notified of memos when you log on or when you unset /AWAY.
    NEW You will only be notified of memos when they are sent to you.
    OFF You will not receive any notification of memos.
ON is essentially LOGON and NEW combined.


*MEMOSERV* SET LIMIT {Menu}
