  • Who reads what?

    From Dumas Walker@1:103/705 to ALL on Fri Mar 20 09:59:23 2026
    Is there a quasi-easy way to see which message areas a particular user is joined to? IIRC, I have in past been able to list the users in a
    particular area and was hoping there might be a way to do it per user.

    Thanks!

    You can still list which users have *access* to a particular sub-board, that doesn't necessarily mean they read it.

    You can inspect the data/user/*.subs files to see if their message pointers are pointing to recent messages. That'd be a way.
