Hello again, all.
I'm wondering if anybody knows a way (or can point me to documentation on) to automatically move messages to another sub at a given age instead of just purging them? (I'd like to create archival areas for a couple subs).

Alternatively, is there a way to set messages older than (join date-x) as read for new members?

Thanks a bunch

That's not a built-in feature, but you (or someone) could write a JavaScript module that could do that (and could be executed as a timed event in sbbs, or via jsexec).

No, but that's another good idea fora JS module.
