1. What is it ?
---------------
MakeMail is a program used for converting textfiles to mails for transfering
through fido and compatible networks. It can be used for netmail- and
echomail-messages and MakeMail creates mailpakets in your inbound-directory;
therefore you have to tell your tosser to import mails again.
2. How to start
---------------
It's very simple, you do not even have to have a configuration file to use
MakeMail. You start MakeMail by simply typing (all in one line)
2.1. Example 1 (Matrix/Netmail):
--------------------------------
<-------- command to enter ---------> <----- description ----->
CLI> rx MakeMail.rexx name of the program
AREA "matrix" name of area
FROMADR 2:2464/221.0 the address of the sender
FROM "Ali Rene Schams-Pirzadeh" name of sender
TOADR 2:2464/220.0 address of receiver
TO "Ali Rene Schams-Pirzadeh" name of receiver
FLAGS "CM" flags to set
SUBJECT "This is an example" subject
FILE "MakeMail.rexx" path/name of file
INBOUND "inbound:" inbound-dir
ORIGIN "Original-<-Origin->-" origin to use
<-------- command to enter ---------> <----- description ----->
CLI> rx MakeMail.rexx name of the program
AREA "netmail" name of area
FROMADR 2:2464/221.0 the address of the sender
FROM "Ali Rene Schams-Pirzadeh" name of sender
TOADR 2:2464/220.0 address of receiver
TO "Ali Rene Schams-Pirzadeh" name of receiver
FLAGS "CM" flags to set
SUBJECT "This is an example" subject
FILE "MakeMail.rexx" path/name of file
INBOUND "inbound:" inbound-dir
ORIGIN "Original-<-Origin->-" origin to use
As you can see it does not matter if the AREANAME is "matrix" or "netmail" !
2.2. Example 2 (Echomail):
--------------------------
<-------- command to enter ---------> <----- description ----->
CLI> rx MakeMail.rexx name of program
AREA "newfiles.ger" name of area
FROMADR 2:2464/221.0 the address of the sender
FROM "Ali Rene Schams-Pirzadeh" name of sender
TO "Ali Rene Schams-Pirzadeh" name of receiver
FLAGS "" flags to set
SUBJECT "This is an example" subject
FILE "MakeMail.rexx" path/name of file
INBOUND "inbound1:" inbound-dir
ORIGIN "Original-<-Origin->-" origin to use
2.3. Flags:
-----------
Currently the following flags are supported:
- "CM" => for crashmail
- "FL" => for file attach (the file must be in your inbound-dir,
use filename for subject)
- "PV" => private mail (will be added automatically to net-/matrix-mails)
- "KS" => kill if sent
If you wanna use more than one flag: just add an extra space between them
(have a look at the demo-script called 'MakeMail.Demo') !
2.4. CONFIG-file
----------------
You may wish to use a configfile instead of all these command-line-options.
That's no problem either: just write all the keywords into a configfile
(one keyword a line) and use the keyword config to startup this program,
"rx MakeMail.rexx config <configfile>" (for example
"rx MakeMail.rexx config MakeMail.cfg").
The configfile may have the following additional keywords:
2.4.1. STACK <stacksize>
------------------------
Default is "300000".
2.4.2. TASKPRI <priority>
-------------------------
Default is "-8".
--> You may use for all keywords small or capital letters (or mixed) <--
