Hi, I have troubles getting my IRC bot registered with NickServ.

I connect the second output of a "irc in" node to a function that checks `msg.payload.type`, and if it's "`join`" sends a message to an "irc out" node.

I tried both

- `msg.topic = "nickserv", msg.payload = "register <password> <email>"`
- `msg.raw = ["privmsg", "nickserv", "register <password> <email>"]`

but this doesn't work. What am I missing ? Thanks !
