 The following menu commands related to the Message Bases and reading/posting of messages.
+**MA - Change Message Area**
+  Data: # + - NOLIST
+  This menu command allows the user to change to a new message area.  If
+  no optional data is present, then a list of message areas will be shown
+  to the user.
+  If the + sign is on the optional data field, Mystic will select the
+  next available message area that the user has access to.
+  If the - sign is on the optional data field, Mystic will select the
+  previous available message area that the user has access to.
+  If NOLIST is provided on the optional data field, Mystic will prompt the
+  user to select a message area but will not show the list of areas unless
+  the user asks to see it by entering ? to list.
+  If a message area Unique ID is presented on the option data field, Mystic
+  will change to the message area that is linked to the supplied unique ID.
+**MC - Check Private BBS E-mail**
+  Data: /NOLIST /UNREAD
+  This menu command checks the user's private e-mail box for messages and
+  provides a list of all messages in the private mailbox followed by a
+  prompt asking the user if they would like to read the messages.
+  If the /NOLIST option is supplied on the optional data field, Mystic will
+  skip listing the messages and go directly to reading new e-mail messages.
+  If the /UNREAD option is supplied, Mystic will list only messages that are
+  flagged as "unread" in the list and prompt only if there are unread
+  messages.
+**MD - Set Message Last Read By Date**
+  Data: /ALL
+  This menu command allows the user to set their "last read" message in
+  each message base by inputting a date.  After a valid date is supplied
+  Mystic will ask the user if they would like to set this date for the
+  current base or all bases.  If the user selects all bases, then every
+  message base regardless of group will be updated.
+  If the /ALL optional data is provided, Mystic will skip the prompt and
+  update all message bases with the user supplied date.
+**MF - View/Scan Draft Messages**
+  Data: /SCAN
+  When posting a message, users will have the option to save a message as
+  a draft and resume the message post at another time.
+  If a user loses their session for any reason such as a disconnection or
+  they run out of session time while posting a message, Mystic will also
+  automatically save a draft of their message post.
+  This option will present a list of available saved draft messages and
+  provide the user the ability to continue a post or remove the draft
+  message.
+  If the /SCAN option is provided on the optional data field, Mystic will
+  scan and if there are draft message saved, it will ask the user if they
+  would like to resume their draft messages.  If there are no draft
+  messages Mystic will do nothing.
+**MG - Change Message Group**
+  Data: "+", "-", <Group ID>, or None
+  This action will list the Message Groups that the user has access to,
+  excluding any groups flagged as "hidden" and then prompt the user to
+  select a group.
+  If the data is set to "+" then Mystic will move to the next available
+  message group.
+  If the data is set to "-" then Mystic will move to the previous available
+  message group.
+  If the Group Unique ID is supplied, Mystic will automatically change the
+  user into the specific message group.
+  When joining a message group, Mystic will display the "group#" display file
+  from the theme's text directory if it exists, where # is the group's ID.
+**MI - Message Index Reader**
+  Data: <template filename with no extension>, or None
+  The Message Base Index system presents users with a list of all message
+  bases along with statistics of total, new, personal messages for each
+  bases.  Users can scroll through and search through the list and select
+  bases to read, search, post, subscribe or unsubscribe from.
+  The data field provides the template name which if left blank defaults to
+  "msg_index" and points to the template file to load.  This field should
+  not include a file extension as .ini will be appended to it.
+  The template file contains all of the visual configurations for this
+  function as well as many other options that can completely customize the
+  experience.  For example, one could copy the default msg_index.ini
+  template to msg_change.ini, and then modify its visual and functional
+  settings so that it pops up a scroll box of message bases for the user to
+  change their current message base.
+  The same could be done to pop up a list of message bases that allows the
+  user to toggle which bases will be included in scans for new messages.  To
+  use these alternative templates, simply execute MI with the data field of
+  "msg_change" or whatever the custom template filename you've created is.
+**ML - Browser/Search Network Nodelists**
+  Data: None
+  This command opens up a network node list browser which allows the user to
+  list FidoNet-style networks by Zone, Net, or search by Address or Text.
+**MM - Send Mass BBS E-mail**
+  Data: None
+  This command allows the user to send bulk private BBS email to users using
+  either an access string, a list of user names, or all users on the BBS
+  system.  This function is typically only made available to System Operators
