I have optional stuff in my scenario to do that, and also reading and
posting to newsgroups. However, it relies on the hosting system having
a certain setup, with standard programs for sending mail and posting
news. In my Amiga setup (fairly similar to what UNIX systems use), all
of the needed stuff is actually specified on the command line to the
'sendmail' command.
Keeping in mind that this is AmigaMUD source code, and that the system
commands are Amiga specific, here is the code for the final send, taken
right out of my sources:
define tp_email proc emailSendLetter(string s)void:
int fd;
string cmd;
thing me;
me := Me();
if s = "" then
Print("Empty letter - not sent.\n");
else
/* note: server runs atomically, so no conflict over the temp file */
fd := FileOpenForWrite("T:MUD.letter");
if fd = 0 then
Print("Sorry - can't open letter file.\n");
else
Log("'" + me@p_pName + "' mailing to " + me@p_pEmailTo + "\n");
FileWrite(fd, "X-MailSoftware: AmigaMUD telegram office\n");
FileWrite(fd, "\n");
FileWrite(fd, s);
FileClose(fd);
cmd := "sendmail < T:MUD.letter -f \"" + me@p_pName +
"\" -t " + me@p_pEmailTo;
if me@p_pEmailSubject ~= "" then
cmd := cmd + " -s \"" + me@p_pEmailSubject + "\"";
fi;
cmd := cmd + " -R \"" + me@p_pNRealName + "\"";
Execute(cmd);
Execute("delete T:MUD.letter");
/* do this so that local mail, as in name@here, will work */
if NewsThing@p_pRunUUXQT then
Execute("uuxqt");
fi;
fi;
fi;
me -- p_pEmailTo;
me -- p_pEmailSubject;
