Re: [pbmserv-dev] suggested funcionality: all showas

[Richard Rognlie <rrognlie@gamerz.net>]

It does work, IF you fully qualify the showas statement...

    Subject: all showas userid password userid [active | inactive | next]

This form...

    Subject: all showas userid password [active | inactive | next]

*assumes* that userid is the default user to apply "active|inactive|next" to.

And yes...  The risque engine is the only one to not do this...

my bad
