The message would e.g. consist of:


- last time you accessed PAUSE (to make sure no one else is using your login)
- related news that might be of interest as an author, e.g. $^V versus $]
- open RT tickets (if any)


So, if there is no news and no RT tickets, the message would at least contain the last access time. Which is a nice service, because then you _can_ be sure no one's messing with your login, without having to login yourself.
