A question like this was very recently asked. Read up on the topic “how to ask a player for his name and store it in a variable?”. There’s some good example code in there. As for actually writing the text, the package should have example code.

Brian, what is “winmail.dat”?
(Your message had that file attached)

Did it? The echo of my mail back to me did not appear to have it. I’m mailing from a web interface to a MS Exchange server so I’m not really surprised. (Actually I’m mailing from a Red Hat OS running a Win2k terminal connecting to a web interface to an exchange server… I’m sure that’s exactly what MS had in mind
If this keeps up I’ll either have to wait until I’m off work to send a message, or do it from their own web interface.-----Original Message-----

Hello!

There recently was a thread called “how to ask a player for his name and
store it in a variable”. This is probably what you want…

BTW, I have written something similar for myself, so if you need the
source code, drop me a line. (It’s GPL code)

Regards,
Bernhard

From the bottom of the source of his email…

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

In short, it’s a rich text version of the same email.
Brian could ask his MS Exchange server manager to change the options, and tell
it to only send plain text to avoid this…

Thank you very much. Unfortunately none of the fixes mentioned work for the web interface, but I think if I set that change while hooked directly via VPN they’ll stick for when I use the web interface later on. Forgive the attachments until I can get home and fix it!
I have also emailed the administrator of the exchange server citing the MS support document.-----Original Message-----

Okay that explains it, I’ve never used a MS Exchange server before.
