Yes, but it reverts to allowing messages again when you reboot.
This makes it pretty frustrating for those who only want to
activate it occasionally.  CloseView used to be the same way,
where either you had to turn it off every time you start up,
or you had to reactivate it with init cdev/Aask/INITPicker
and reboot.  Apple saw the light and fixed this problem.  I
hope Joachim Lindenberg comes around as well.

And to the individual who suggested that a net use 'receive-
only' copies of Broadcast--That's fine, until someone logs
onto GEnie and gets the full-featured version, gives it to
all his/her friends, &c.
