[snipped Chris's Amiga Imp, thanks, Chris :)]
Thanks for reminding me about this, cleaned it up, then promptly forgot about it. You can set the
state of mailme in send_rep_out in many ways, I use mailme = is_name( "mailme", argument ); from
within the caller, which let's players type es <some long output command> mailme.
Here was my final solution with a caller example first:
send_rep_out( ch, outbuf, mailme, "Estate Help" );
void send_rep_out( CHAR_DATA * ch, char * outbuf, bool mailme, char * msub )
{
if ( mailme )
{
bool saved_mail = FALSE;
if ( ( !IS_NPC( ch ) )
&& ( str_cmp( ch->pcdata->email_addy, "notset" ) ) )
{
char mailfilename[MSL];
sprintf( mailfilename, "%s.mail", ch->name );
saved_mail = save_mail_file( mailfilename, outbuf );
if ( saved_mail )
{
char outbuf2[MSL];
sprintf( outbuf2, "Email sent to %s", ch->pcdata->email_addy );
send_to_char( outbuf2, ch );
send_email( ch->pcdata->email_addy, msub, mailfilename );
}
else
{
send_to_char( outbuf, ch );
send_to_char( "\n\r@@eUNABLE TO SEND SYSTEM MAIL. @@WCheck your sendmail
settings.@@N\n\r", ch );
}
}
else
{
send_to_char( outbuf, ch );
}
}
else
{
send_to_char( outbuf, ch );
}
}
void send_email( const char * m_address, const char * m_subject, const char * mfilename )
{
char mailbuf[MSL];
char delbuf[MSL];
int forkval;
sprintf( mailbuf, "mail -s \"%s\" %s <%s%s",
m_subject, m_address, MAIL_DIR, mfilename );
if ( ( forkval = fork() ) > 0 )
{
sprintf( dbbuf, "Just sent email: %s", mailbuf );
monitor_chan( dbbuf, MONITOR_DEBUG );
return;
}
else if ( forkval < 0 )
{
sprintf( dbbuf, "Error in fork for sent email: %s", mailbuf );
monitor_chan( dbbuf, MONITOR_DEBUG );
return;
}
system( mailbuf );
sprintf( delbuf, "rm %s%s", MAIL_DIR, mfilename );
system( delbuf );
exit(0);
return;
}
bool save_mail_file( const char * mfilename, char * mtext )
{
FILE * mailfp;
char mailfpfilename[MSL];
fclose( fpReserve );
sprintf( mailfpfilename, "%s%s", MAIL_DIR, mfilename );
if ( ( mailfp = fopen( mailfpfilename, "w" ) ) == NULL )
{
fpReserve = fopen( NULL_FILE, "r" );
return FALSE;
}
fprintf( mailfp, "%s\n", strip_color( mtext, "@@" ) );
fflush( mailfp );
fclose( mailfp );
fpReserve = fopen( NULL_FILE, "r" );
return TRUE;
