                     Instructions for using Areafix


        To link/unlink areas: Send a netmail message to AreaFix using
        your password as the subject. You can add "-Q", "-L",
        "-R" and "-H" in the subject field, after the password.

        -Q: to request a list of available areas.
        -L: to request a sysop-defined message (usually a description
            of some or all areas).
        -R: to request the rescan of the specified areas (SqPrv
            areas are automatically excluded from rescan).
        -H: to get help.

        The same goals can be achieved by using some special
        commands in the message body: %Query, %List, %Rescan,
        %Help respectively.

        In the body of the message, you must list the TAGS of the
        areas you want to link or rescan (optionally with a leading
        '+'). If you want to unlink an area, preceed the area name
        with a '-' (e.g. -CHATTER). More than one area tag can be
        specified on the same line.

        The password and area tags are not case-sensitive.
