So on more obscure, lesser known ircds such as austhex (run on AustNet), mirc uses a full LIST even though the server may support the extended syntax. I think it should always send it, and if the server returns an empty list, then use the old fashioned way of full LIST and filtering out unwanted channels.

DO YOU ASK WHY??? lets suppose you are in one server that have more than 30000 channels (and we know that at least 10000 just have 1 or 2 people on them) now, lets suppose that you accidentaly sent /list ok, you are dead if you do a /list lol, you are dead again if you want to live, you have to make a /quote list lol got it?
