   Incorrect logins, password reset e-mail/

   Hello g00r00!   
      
   I just noticed the following:   
      
   * If someone exceeds the maximum login attempts (enters an incorrect password   
   multiple times), gets prompt #538 (if the e-mail reset feature has been   
   enabled) and then hangs up at that prompt, Mystic appears to send the password   
   reset e-mail despite the fact that the user hung up -- *if* the user had "Yes"   
   selected at the lightbar prompt.   
      
   I would have expected it to not send the password reset e-mail but rather the   
   hackwarn e-mail (both if the user denies e-mail reset or hangs up).   
      
   * If someone exceeds the maximum login attempts, gets prompt #538, denies   
   e-mail reset, gets prompt #475, chooses to send a password inquiry to the   
   SysOp and then aborts the message from within the full screen editor, the   
   recipient of the automatic hackwarn message appears to be set to be the SysOp   
   rather than the potentially hacked user.   
      
   * If a user attempts to deselect a (single) message base from new scans or QWK   
   new scans, which has New Scan: Forced or QWK Scan: Forced, prompts #302/#406   
   do not seem to be shown any longer. (I know these prompts were unexpectedly   
   shown earlier when selecting/deselecting *all* bases, which was   
   fixed in the 07/11 A48, but perhaps that fix also affected this?)   
      
   Hoping you can take a look at this whenever you get some time.   
      
   Many thanks in advance!   
      
   Best regards   
   Bj”rn
