Some changes have been made to the Message Boards.
1. On many of the "general discussion" boards, in the "Topics" view,
Threads with new posts now appear at the top instead of just the
most-recently-started threads at the top.
2. You can now edit your posts.
To do this go to "my messages" (you must be logged in to do that)
You can only edit messages you posted while you were logged in.
3. E-mail addresses on posts.
Instead of the "mailto:" link previously used it
now links to a script that redirects to it.
This to to prevent spam spiders from finding such email addresses.
(To people reading the posts it is no different, they can click on the
"poster" link and their email client opens with the To: field filled in.)
These changes only affect local message boards used directly in SPRACI and do not affect
custom boards created in "my boards" or the sections for Usenet Newsgroups.
