If you don't mind I added the file to this message.

I added "Guest Selection Page" coming in version 2.3.8

Not for the Version! I don't want to update this list on every release (:-(
Plus the list would get too long over time!

No, you have to use MOptions instead.

Good idea, I added a "ELOG Version" as well.

I suggest to add an attributes  like  OS

MOptions OS = linux, windows2000, windowsXP¨, windows2003

to indicate on which version we are speaking

There was a recent bug which made "Edit elog.cfg" stop working if the 
language is not English. This has been fixed and the update is in CVS. If 
you use English, this might be another problem. Can you send me your 
complete elogd.cfg so I can try to reproduce your problem?

"Not always" is hard to understand. Either it works or it does not for a 
certain configuration. What you can do is start elogd with the "-v" flag, 
which outputs all communication to the console window. Among this 
information, you have the communication with the SMTP server when sending an 
email. Maybe you see some problem there which only sometimes occurs (like 
wrong email addresses or so...)

You probably mixed up deny of a command to a certain user and deny of hosts 
based on their IP. This has nothing to do with each other except the 
word "deny". Please read the documentation about how to set up IP 
based "hosts deny". This works only for certain IPs, but not for certain 
users. 

If you want guests not to be able to enter messages, but allow this to 
registered users, you should set up a password file, and a guest menu. 
Please refer to the elogd.cfg file for this forum which is done in this way. 
Have a look at elog:Config%20Examples/4 .
