Not terrible, but I have some suggestions:

None of your functions have parameters. Instead, you use only global variables. There is no need to do this. You can have

function securepost($key) {
   return isset($_POST[$key])
      ? stripslashes(mysql_real_escape_string($_POST[$key]))
      : NULL
}

Then instead of sanitizing your post vars as you need them, you can just call

$var = post('password'); //etc.

functions are really supposed to be wrappers for common behavior, macros in a way. You don't need to define entire specific behavior and encapsulate them in functions.

mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "") or die(mysql_error()); is redundant. mysql_connect() already asserts a warning if it fails.

In getinfo(), you don't need to do SELECT *. Just select the data you need like SELECT id, msg ...

mysql_num_rows should be mysql_num_rows() I think.
