this works ok, sends a pm to cmad:
/raw PRIVMSG cmad :hello!!! this is a test
but this one doesn't work, which is supposed to send a msg to the channel #cmad
/raw PRIVMSG #cmad :hey #cmad! g'day
any idea why? Both would have worked it I had telnet-ed to the IRC server and had done the cmd. Could it be a raw bug?

They should both work, maybe the channel #cmad has some modes set to stop your message? I trust you are testing with a clone on the channel #cmad, because the only time you will 'see' your message is if you PRIVMSG your own nick.

Have you checked you don't have an alias for /raw that's overriding it? Also, have you turned on debugging to see what it sends?

Sorry but I get the exact opposite to your test results.
For me, the first one does not work and the second one does. Why? Because in the first one you left out the "#" in the room name. I also tried both again without the ":" prefix and got the same results as the IRCd I am on allows it. For myself, at least, there is no bug with /raw.

No in the first one i didn't leave out the # by mistake; it was intentional. The first one is supposed to be a PM, whereas the second one a message to a channel. And here's what I see in the debug window:
-> <w/e>.quakanet.org PRIVMSG cmad :hello!!! this is a test
-> <w/e>.quakenet.org PRIVMSG #cmad :hey #cmad! g'day
I've been playing with telnet connecting to IRC servers for a while now and I am sure that both should have worked. Both comply with the RFC1459, so both are correct. It's getting weirder and weirder. I don't know why it didn't work for you Watchdog. I'm starting to believe it could be some mIRC setting :\
Oh and no, I have no alias named /raw.

-> <w/e>.quakanet.org PRIVMSG cmad :hello!!! this is a test
-> <w/e>.quakenet.org PRIVMSG #cmad :hey #cmad! g'day Both are working, or the second line would not be there. You won't see text you send to channels via /raw unless you echo it there yourself, the server doesn't send your own channel messages back to you.

NP. Just for info, you can also use "/privmsg <target> message to send" in place of the '/raw privmsg ...'

I don't know why it didn't work for you Watchdog.
Sorry there, didn't realise it was yourself you were trying to send to. In that case it did work because I got the "That person isn't here" message from the server.
