services problem that will do your head in

If you're using any kind of scripts to identify to Channel Services, note that in most cases, they will consider eggdrop's standard output to be a flood, which might explain the ignore you mentioned.

When sending text to Channel Services bots, send one command per 6 seconds, this will ensure that they never consider the bot to be flooding.

One reason could possibly be that you are sending the message to nickserv incorectly.

Most networks require that you use the full nick@host format to message nickserv.

here is my problem
i can't id my bot with nickserv not even manually using .msg nickserv id blah
however i can .msg user message anyone and they receive the message
also.... if i change the bots nick using .dump nick, when the bot regains its nickname, i get a message from nickserv in the console that i need to identify.

I have checked the ignores and there is nothing in there. I have changed the restarted the eggdrop using ./eggdrop -m ... and that doesn't work. i have used different channel files
and i have tried different config files. I have tried changed the net type and that does nothing eiter. i really have no idea what the problem could be or what to test next. If anyone at all has any ideas please give us a hand. any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
