I don't receive notification emails anymore for the newly added github 
issues...If I activate Settings->Notification->Watching->Email, I 
get them again, but also from all others repo I'm watching...Is there 
a way to only get the notifications by email for the repos I'm owning?

Someone else wrote:

So the 'solution' I found to this was to set up filters for the various 
repository emails by filtering on email list. The list filtering 
is mentioned here on the github blog: https://github.com/blog/967-github-secrets
(scroll down the page a bit).


I would then just forward the emails from selected repositories to 
the "correct" email address.

If you communicate clearly your financial needs, I'll do everything 
possible to help keep you funded.  An occassional update to your 
funding requirements would be appreciated.  I would appreciate being 
added to a regular email update, in case I can't keep up on AltMe. 
 I wonder if others who have donated on Paypal may be interested 
in an occassional update, so they can help when able/motivated.  
Your current progress is very motivating.  I hope that others who 
are watching feel the same way.

Has anyone here worked with OAuth and/or the etzy.com API in REBOL? 
 I'm currently looking through Christopher Ross-Gill's OAuth implementation 
for Twitter, and interested in writing a REBOL app using the etzy.com 
API.  I understand most of it, but don't get the "oauth_signature" 
spec.  Don't have much time for this, so would like to offer some 
$$$ for anyone able to instruct and or provide help implementing 
the etsy API.  Email reverse "g r o  tod  z r a t i u g  ta  codmorf"

So, give me an email, I will send the exact script to you for you 
to try ....

When you distribute your REBOL program now, you just dump the script 
somewhere, on a web site or in an email or in AltME. To match that 
with Red, you don't want to have to give a licence at all

I need one HTC sensation, press of a shooter, one button press to 
get jpeg into my email or facebook. Just throw your workflow to the 
trashcan, you can do better nowadays :-)

I've sent an email to Freddy already asking a few more questions 
about his issues.

Now Red supports 21 datatypes. In the following R3 datatype list, 
datatypes with a minus prefix are not supported in Red yet.


action -binary -bitset block char -closure -command datatype -date 
-decimal -email -end -error -event -file -frame function get-path 
get-word -gob -handle -image integer -issue -library lit-path lit-word 
logic -map -module -money native none -object op -pair -paren path 
-percent -port -rebcode refinement set-path set-word string -struct 
-tag -task -time -tuple -typeset unset -url -utype -vector word

No one will be impressed with normal GUI, email, database capabilities, 
even if it's 10x more productive, but anything multimedia, video, 
3D, etc. which demonstrates "modern" capabilities, and beats other 
solutions, works on mobile, etc., then they're much more likely to 
go "hmmm".

you can email me if need be at [ptretter-:-hotmail-:-com]

If you have ideas or help to propose him, feel free to contact him 
through his github's email: https://github.com/be-red

I hardly ever email, but if he has no plans, it would be a nice second

Gerard, can you install this app on your Galaxy Tab: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jtb.alogcat&hl=en


Once hello.apk has crashed, just switch to this app, and send me 
the logs by email.

Hi Doc, I just sent you my log results to your red-lang.org email 
account - thanks - it seems the device is unable to locate the sdram 
card since there is no such sdcard on this device and no slot to 
put one too... may be there is another place to send files but I 
never looked at it and so I don't know where to send my files - the 
device is just using his own directories by itself and I never bothered 
about it until now ... I will have to look further to help you in 
this way.

Congratulations Jerry! I think Carl should get back to R3 at least 
just because of your book. Maybe you should try to send him an email 
about that?

I've send Carl an email about my R3 book in China and Taiwan. Not 
sure he got the email or not.

Yes, now I started to setting all, but now it should works well.

someone's email is attached to that link

I hope it is not rude to leave a question here as opposed to be here 
for the disucssion live, ala IRC. Please forgive me if so, and if 
so I will ask again when others are present. I will break down my 
script into smaller part questions as time goes on. First thing, 
I am under the impression that if I can generate a random number 
between 1 and 1 billion and assign this result to an aribtray variable 
word like so

token: random/secure 1000000000


I want to email my newly generated random number to someone. So I 
thought of this:

send [person-:-example-:-com] "Thank you. Your number is token."


One second later I realized that will just the send the actial word 
token, not the number the variabkle word token represents.

Is the above a correct way to generate a random number?


How do I insert that random number into the body of the text of an 
email to send someone? (send [person-:-example-:-com] "Thank you. Your 
number is [token]" maybe?)


 Thanks for your help in advance, apologies for any breach of rules 
 or etiquette. 
etiquetteetiquette

Thank you all for addressing my concerns and for your answers about 
my first coding question.


Ahh.. rejoin. Reading up on it makes me better understand how some 
things are to be done in Rebol.

 Continuing to the final goal...


I have to extract an email address from a GET transfer. The methoed 
of sending the info to me is completely out of my control. An email 
address will be entered into a form on a website not controled by 
me. GET methoed will send the data to my script. The people who created 
the form on the external site advised that they label the email address 
as "trnEmailAddress".


 So now I want to see if I am correct in thinking how to extract and 
 use the email address. Will using the decode a cgi form command (I 
 know they are not commands in the tradiational sense)  work. How 
 does it work, does it create variables out of the GET (or Post when 
 using Post, but I am forced to recieve the info via GET) stream?


The GET stream in my case will include "&trnEmailAddress=person%40example%2Ecom. 
So can I do this?

decode-cgi system/options/cgi/query-string

send trnEmailAddress "Thank you. Rest of message." 

Thanks for your help.

Sunanda: Thanks again for issuing the World invitation. Everyone 
thanks for the continuing help.


I have read the cited document, but it just leaves me with more questions.

Is the following literal?

cgi-string: read-cgi
cgi-block: decode-cgi cgi-string
cgi-obj: make object! cgi-block 


 That is to say should I type exactly that? Or is cgi-string for example 
 a theoretical variable assignment that I could call anything? Are 
 they all proper commands, or is any part of that just for example 
 purposes?  I am thinking I should copy and paste it verbatium. I 
 am also thinking I mispelt verbatum.


 I am stuck with GET. Does this mean I can leave out some code that 
 makes up for  not knowing if the original data is POST vs GET? These 
 are hypothetical questions for better long term learning. I for now 
 will go with the idea that everything is as straight fowarrd as it 
 seems. I know that my GET stream will have "trnEmailAddress" in it 
 which is a field that will contains an email address.


 So will the following  generate a random number, extract the address 
 and email the same random number to that email address?

token: random/seed now/percise

cgi-string: read-cgi
cgi-block: decode-cgi cgi-string
cgi-obj: make object! cgi-block 


send trnEmailAddress rejoin [ "Thank you. Your number is" token "." 
]


 Graham: Thank you for the extra info on GUID, but Windows is not 
 involved here. I realize that random number generating really isn't 
 unless you have a monkey throwing darts at a numbered board. Regardless 
 extra effort to 
make a number unique is useful and your advice appreciated. 


 I do not think the corner cases will come up and the people who control 
 the original form assured me that web page issues warnings if the 
 form is not filled out correct which should help. I do realize that 
 people are idiots, systems are not fool proof, etc. What I am saying 
 is my basic needs are basic and I should be OK so I am not fretting 
 over those examples. It is great though to know the solutions are 
 out there when I need them.

 Tahnks.

Yes, the names of the words are arbitrary. -- you can chose your 
own names.


Whether the data came in via GET or POST makes no difference if you 
issue the READ-CGI just once.

If the CGI string was yadda.com?email=[me-:-test-:-com]&token=0
then the cgi-obj will look like this:
    make object! [
    email: "[me-:-test-:-com]"
    token: "0"
]

Note the values are strings, so you need to convert the email value 
to an email! datatype:

  send to-email cgi-obj/email rejoin [ "Thank you. Your number is" 
  cgi-obj/token "." ]

Here is an example:

cgi-obj: construct decode-cgi read-cgi

;check the input
all [
	in cgi-obj 'email
	trnEmailAddress: to-email trim form cgi-obj/email
	not empty? trnEmailAddress
] [
	;evrything seems ok

 send trnEmailAddress reform ["Thank you. Your number is" token "."]
	quit
]
print "Error!"

Evegeniy: I will contact Brian and give him your email address.

I guess they are in for a surprise email. :-)

Thanks for the welcome back message.
 

 I left off asking about the mySQL driver. So I want to insert into 
 a database a random number the code already generated and associate 
 it with an email address that was provided by a CGI form. Have yet 
 to create this in the real world but for now let us assume I will 
 call the database "customers". The people who process the credit 
 card and collect the email address advised me that the address will 
 be labelled "trnEmailAddress".


 After finding the mySQL driver Here is what I figured out using placeholders 
 for things like password, etc. Would appreicate knowing if this is 
 correct.

; Loads MySQL driver
do %mysql-driver/mysql-protocol.r
; Opens connection to MySQL server
db: open mysql://[[user][:pass]@]host[:port]/database


; Send query to database server. Enters random number from above. 
customers is probably the name of the database I will create

insert db ["INSERT INTO customers VALUES (?,?)" "trnEmailAddress" 
"token"]



 Next I need to insert an existing PDF file (an e-book) into a directory 
 created by the script. The directory will be named after a random 
 number that was earlier generated by the script. I am astounded that 
 I can not find the command to copy a file. So the variable assigned 
 to this random number is called "token".

 So I have the following.

make-dir %token/


 How do I copy a file into this new directory? Also, is that the corecct 
 way to make a directory?

So I have 

mailbox: open [
    scheme: 'pop
    user: "[user-:-domain-:-org]"
    pass: "password"
    host: "mail.domain.org"
]


and I am getting my email as expected. Two questions. Is my password 
being encrypted by Rebol when it communicates with my mail server? 
How do I know?

I have included view.r and now have the graphical elements working 
after 'enface', thanks GrahamC. But I'm still getting the other errors: 
This is all to do with setting up the email parameters:

    Set-Net not provided.

    ** Access Error: Invalid port spec: scheme pop user [me-:-mydomain-:-net] 
    pass PASSWORD host mail.mydomain.net

    ** Near: open [scheme: 'pop user: "[me-:-mydomain-:-net]" pass: "PASSWORD" 
    host: "mail.mydomain.net"]

I can email it

OK, the email in my account here should work

That's pretty much all the change I had to make to the prot-smtp.r

then 

s: open smtp://smtp.host.com
read s

will send the preconstructed email.

The problem with writing a prot-send.r is that we have no guidance 
yet on where user variables such as name, email and passwords are 
to be stored.

Graham, I'm really not sure it's good idea to show these commands 
on web-public forum. Why don't you use your email in such a cases?

And [carl-:-rebol-:-com] is not Carl's email address any longer. :-)

I know what Carl uses as his email and yes, I knew it wasn't what 
I wrote above.  Last time I looked he had an s at the end of this 
name.

Nah, this is to prevent harvesting of email by bots

email addresses in posts are munged on the rebol.org archive .....so 
they should be safe from bots.

The email of Carl is  [open-:-rebol-:-com]

Hey! Carl published the email on his blog!

Well, it isn't a personal email, is the email of the opensource rebol 
that he published, so he can ignore that email adress as he wish...

Regardless if email addresses are munged in the rebol.org archives, 
don't post real email addresses in a web-public group unless you 
are attempting to test spam filters.

As a matter of practice I generally share contact information for 
other people ONLY through individual private channels and NEVER on 
email.  Just a thought.

I believe you can email the stackoverflow admins, Brian, and they 
can transfer stats to your new account.

I have no idea whether my old answers has associated email addresses. 
I suppose it doesn't matter.

SO didn't previously require you to create an account or even provide 
an email address to answer questions. Since I didn't care about SO, 
I didn't bother to make an account. Now they require an email address, 
and use that email address to determine who you are. Creating an 
account is almost an extra, just a way to give you a nickname and 
profile info.

@GrahamC: Thanks A LOT for prot-smtp.r and prot-send.r.  I was able 
to send an email from R3, but only after changing a line from:

	ehlo: any [ port/spec/ehlo "rebol3 user pc" ]
to
	ehlo: any [ port/spec/ehlo port/spec/email ]

More prot-send.r testing.  Had the hardest time trying to get 'send 
to work with my mail server.  Found I had to change a line in prot-send.r 
to :


 smtp-port: [ scheme: 'smtp host: (user/smtp) user: (user/user) pass: 
 (user/pass) ehlo: (find/tail user/email 
@
) timeout: 600 ]


as EHLO on my SMTP host was expecting only the domain portion of 
the email address instead of the entire email address which is what 
I had been trying.

Moving from the 'random topic back to prot-send.r, I found a somewhat 
serious bug with attachments and base-64 encoding.  I sent the exact 
same attachment using webmail and R3.


at position 32677 in the email sent by webmail (the headers are slighly 
different sizes and the base-64 line breaks are different between 
the two clients) we have the following data:


eMHgCm4jUznXtDnpVKaErkAc107QbjVC6siyHYBu96hxLUjnXDKeWqPOTzVmWxuUY7kJ+lRGF16x

OhsNDu7uUK9wYiq/7OeOK1p03Mwq1eXRbnnUVuZJcKCecD3rctbVbYjdy5/Si1ks7WTLyAerYzUH


at position 32521 in the email sent by R3, we have the following 
data:

doL93jtyD9089Caq6bZO0g3Llj0Wu8t9OhsNDu7uUK9wYiq/7OeOK1p03Mwq1eXRbnnUVuZJ


I copied the three lines of data around where the problem occurs. 
 On the short line in the R3 data, the following sequence is missing:


POTzVmWxuUY7kJ+lRGF16xtn6VmO4ncYpZX34HYU0qw7EU3afSgdyUKCvy1s6DpEN3


You can imagine the kind of trouble that causes with binary data. 
;-)

Does anyone know how to reach Brian Tiffing nowadays?  the email

Allen: sent you email with Frank's scripts attached.

Good idea. I will email you what I have later,

Mike, I'd rather wait until the volunteer who is doing the RSS has 
added the code, rather than bypass their efforts.

Meanwhile, you have several ways of finding out what  scripts are 
new or changed on REBOL.org:
-- we'll sen doyu a tailored email

    http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/cpt-update-profile.r
    See Section 4, Notices
-- you can peek at your unsent notices to get advanced warning:

     http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/uns-display-notices.r?ml=yes&my=yes
-- You can use the LDS API:
       do http://www.rebol.org/library/public/lds-local.r

      probe lds/send-server 'list-updated-scripts [5]   ;; what's changed 
      in the last 5 days?
-- Just eyeball the script library home page:
     http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/script-index.r

What could possibly work is if there was an AltME feature that allowed 
any user to mark a few entries, give them a title and post them to 
the ML as an email.

Sorry, hit return to soon.  The above is supposed to be preambled 
with a whine about me not getting into the mailing list.  I can't 
talk to lists spat rebol spot com.  And I just noticed I didn't mungle 
the list email in above.  I mungled  IP addressed to xxx.

Email, then?

Email is so bland/boring   =)

Nice!
Email gets the job done.....It's live.
Thanks!!

Thanks for the script -- and for the problem report.

Looks to me like the script, as uploaded, contained non-UTF8 characters, 
and they are being treated as multi-byte characters.

REBOL, and REBOL.org can really only handle ASCII....Unicode and 
such like is for R3.


If you email (preferably in a ZIP to prevent email software from 
chewing up the code) the original script, I'll take a look.

Thanks, Scott.
--The email script looks fine
-- it's identical to what is in the Library
-- Viewing the scriot works fine
-- Downloading it doesn't

.....Which is exactly what you reported. We are now both on the same 
page :-)

It's about 65 lines so rather than post it here I will email you 
a copy.

Also, can we have a smarter parser for obfuscating email addresses:

has anyone any experience, of how to configure 'sendmail, to allow 
sending email from various domains? I run cgi script, I want to send 
email from particular domain (virtual host on my server - I host 
several domains), but it always goes away as one concrete domain. 
I have suspiccion I should somehow turn off email masquarading, but 
dunno how :-)

if the user sending the email (usually "apache" or "httpd" if you're 
on CGI) is in the trusted users list for sendmail, it will accept 
whatever you put in the From: header. are you calling sendmail directly 
to send the email?

I ´d like to have a CGI script to filter my emails at server. My 
ISP uses Cpanel that gives the possibility of use this to send emails 
to file:  |/home/user/cgi-bin/myfilter.cgi. The thing all I get is 
the whole content of each email appended to the CGI script. Anyone 
could help me?

I will try to find my config .conf and send it to you by email ...

This is an odd one.  I have a form that records a user's email address, 
the time they filled in the form, and their ip address.

A user did so, and got two subscription notices - timed 30 seconds 
or so apart.  So, both were his email address, but the ip address 
of the later one was from Google!

Yep, that was it.  Mediapartners-Google/2.1 submitted the form again. 
 It looks like if you have the Google search bar, it submits all 
your internet traffic to google, who then go and try and index that 
site - including submitting your email address to a form!!

OK, now that cgi is working, I want to make a form that will allow 
people to give their name and email address to be saved in a rebol 
db file on the server for me to download at my convenience. Has anyone 
already done this so that I don't have to reinvent the wheel?

do you need to write binary, or a multipart?could be multipart can 
use base64. then its somewhat bigger, but has no problems with text-mode. 
could even be that multipart of email works the same. in that case 
there is 'build-attach-body.

Anyone know the answer to this one? 

I have a cgi script that sends an email out. The problem is that 
I want to send to an address that has the same domain name as the 
website but whose mail server is not located there (It's an Exchange 
Server). Any other address works fine as expected. I think it has 
to do with the mx records but, the weird thing is that if I generate 
an email via php, it goes through. Therefore I'm thinking Rebol can 
do it too. 

I've used set-net  for the smtp server and have set it a different 
server completely but still no go.
And I'm in the process of having the MX records changed.

why not try using set-net [ email localhost ]

should it launch a program to send the email or should it write the 
code?

I am the lead (and have been working on this some time).  Any code 
that you have that you want included you can send to me by email.

maybe because demo upload script was promissed to be on-line on 8th 
of January, but so far ppl don't know, where to upload their demos. 
But, as I suggested, I don't expect there will be more than 5 - 6 
participants, so instead of losing time to code such upload script, 
maybe it would be wiser to tell publicly an email address, where 
participants should send their demos :-)

btw: IIRC DocKimbel did some work on ActiveX interfacing some time 
ago. Sadly he is not active nor does he respond to email, so dunno 
if we could start from some already existing codebase ...

Anton, re webspace, send me an email - what do you need to do? private 
ftp space or public web and for how long?

I forked and did a lot of cleaning and rebolifying, but I think Benjamin 
must be real busy or on holiday, because I've been waiting for his 
email for a while. Also, the more I worked on it, the more I wanted 
to check the basis of code. Maybe there is better library than disphelper 
to base on ? I don't know because I didn't check yet. Anyway, I will 
most l likely continue with my fork as is.

if my plugin needs to pull my gmail email .. I need ssl.

disallowing send? why? can't you just send email by java script?

Thinking about it, yes. Maybe the standard things native, browser, 
email, editor. With an option to use mail and editor inbuild. Maybe 
these could run by 'launch, so they are rebol, but reblets cant touch 
the real code.

I ask once again - isn't it possible to send email using javascript 
and getting into browser settings?

I can send you a .zip though?  is your email address here valid?

Could someone from organisators step-in here and tell further conference 
details? Some of us have to book plane or bus few months ahead ;-) 
So far there is only very little info released. Will there be any 
program prior to conference, as there was in Italy for e.g.? I would 
like to see hotel options listed/suggested etc. If noone responds 
here, I will try to contact organisers via email ... (email adresses 
could be listed there too, so far I know only how to contact Nenad 
;-)

excellent - most sites are just reference to hotel search portals. 
 It would be really nice guys, if you would manage some eventual 
hotel discounts for conference participants. Well, maybe a good idea 
would be to advertise DevCon a bit, to know how many ppl would attend. 
Or you can do it other way - reserve e.g. 30 rooms, and use FIFO 
(first in first out) - even email would work to book room, no form 
needed ...
