Just like in Indy 9, you should be calling Join() after Connect() exits, not
in the IsOnIRC event handler. IsOnIRC has nothing to do with Connect().

That code is not thread-safe. The OnRaw event is triggered in the context
of a worker thread. As such, you must use TThread.Synchronize(), either
directly or via the TIdSync class, in order to access the GUI safely. This
is also important to do because OnRaw is triggered whenever sending a
command to the server. The OnRaw event is triggered in the context of the
thread that is sending the command. So you can have OnRaw event triggering
overlapping each other. To differentiate this situation, the AContext
parameter of the event handler is nil when sending a command, and non-nil
when receiving data.

That is all occuring on the server end, not insde of TIdIRC. When TIdIRC
receives the NOTICE command, the OnNotice event is triggered and nothing
else happens until the server finishes its work.

That is the completely wrong IOHandler class to use. That class is designed
to read/write data from TStream objects, not from sockets. This is useful
for recording and playing log files for debugging and testing. In order to
communicate with a live server, you need to use TIdIOHandlerStack instead
(which is the default IOHandler class anyway).

You did not assign a source TStream to the ReceiveStream property which
contains recorded IRC data for TIdIRC to read.

Then you are not using it properly. What EXACTLY did you do with it?
Please provide more details.

Just saying it doesn't work says nothing at all about the actual problem you
are having. Always provide specific details.
