I've noticed some of the formatting doesn't work with certain variables. I replaced the @ symbol below with (at) just incase.
Users: 2 today: 2
Logons: 5 today: 2

(at)MAILW:0-L.....(at) (at)MAILW:1-L.....(at)
^ these two don't work like:
(at)TUSER-L.......(at)
(at)STATS.LOGONS-L(at)
this is the from system.msg file. 'today' doesn't line up like the rest of them.
Try using the | modifier separator instead of '-'. From
http://wiki.synchro.net/custom:atcodes :
When using the hyphen (-) modifier separator, only one format modifier may be used per @-code instance (you cannot combine format modifiers) and @-code arguments (separated from the code with a colon) are not supported.
When using the pipe (|) modifier separator, some modifiers may be combined with others (e.g. |TR) and @-code arguments (separated from the code with a colon) are supported.
