If I enter this line in the Perform dialog for network Foo:
Code:
msg nickserv IDENTIFY $$input(Password:,qep,Identify Registered Nick for $network)

mIRC tries and fails to auto-join a channel in Favourites which is set +R (registered nicks only) before the password is entered.

But when using this code in Remotes it works:
Code:
on 1:CONNECT:{
  if ($network == Foo) msg nickserv IDENTIFY $$input(Password:,qep,Identify Registered Nick for $network)
}

Only tested on a SSL server, is this reproducible for anyone else?
