Forced to reduce the number of iterations to 100 for mysql sake.. 
and even then it would choke 50% of the time.. results.. 


Reading the DB used mysql-protocol.r with join mysql://.. localhost 
{select email from table where name='name' }
Reading the file used a: load %file.txt, b: select a 'email
mysql - 1.35 seconds (using time/now/precise

file - 0 seconds (timestart - 18:35:25.531, timefinish - 18:35:25.531)


Conclusion.. no contest.. loading and selecting from file wins hands 
down.

the contents of the file, and the row inthe DB were identical.. a 
word °email°, and an email address

everytime my inbox slows down on account of the number of email inside, 
I just create a new inbox :)

I guess it tries to send an email because of the @ in the URL.

AltME seems to interpret it as an Email address.

In Global Settings, it reads "a email" in a sentence, where it should 
be "an email"

:) I have no such place yet .. except me here or my email

I'll just copy my email here, as I don't know everybody's on the 
ML:


This is great! First real R3 extension. Just few suggestions overall:


- we should not really forget about using schemes/ports - aproach 
you used is really an old-school, non rebolish. Surely useable, but 
maybe I am just too much used to nice other-rebol-db-driver interfaces. 
As for ports and blocking argument - wasn't R2 ODBC eventually blocking 
too?


- embedded extension is nice, but as well as for SQLite Robert did, 
I suggest to use DLL aproach, with tiny wrapper - you save novices 
from the need to set-up the compiler.


Other than that, I am very surprised that somene actually finally 
produced something VERY usefull, along with nice docs. Just - wow, 
and thanks :-)

ok, so it's not really a bug; it's just that when you have a default 
network server, rebol uses that for any protocol. (set net does not 
actually set the smtp server; it sets the default server. since the 
send function does not specify any server, the default server is 
used to send email; that's why the default server is normally set 
to the smtp server)

the protocol sends a terminating "." to signify the end of an email. 
 But this is not correct.  The RFC specifies that you should send 
crlf "." crlf

Or, even simpler, just add my smtp challenge script to validate the 
email address?

I think, that email validation is so often required that every bot 
must know how to fill field named EMAIL

Could you post/email me just the caret-to-offset and offset-to-caret 
patches? That should be enough for me to get RebGUI working. Thanks.

don't you have the email of the poster?

I'll email the submitter and see if I can find out.

Isn't it Alan Mcleod that works for the Fire Service and developed 
some REBOL based apps?

He was last logged in on 16th June. I'll send him an email.

I got that email om my gmail account  an hour ago

Be careful of using the BCC feature with emails.  I sent mails at 
one time were the BCC recipients were viewable in the header information 
from within Outlook.  A disgruntled recepient then SPAMMED all who 
were BCC'd using my companies email address as the from Address.... 
Corporate Security didn't like me very much.

I think if you BCC someone in an email it should not appear in the 
header of an email.  I don't know the spec, but it doesn't make sense 
if you want to hide who received an email that is displayed in the 
mail header.

It states in the site that the RFC has been updated to handle security 
considterations... so our email implementation seems to be based 
on an older, out-of-date RFC.

As Gabriele says, 'send doesn't use the header for addressing.  It 
is up to you to implement how email is sent, and to whom.

Sorry, I don't understand those arguements.  From my perspective 
Rebol is sending all the BCC'd recipients when an email is sent. 
 Unless you are telling me it is up to the mail server to not pass 
the BCC along.  I somehow don't think so.

It is up to you to determine what the 'address is .. whether it is 
a single email address, or a block of email addresses.

Let's make this clear: SEND is not an email client. SEND is a function 
to send email. If it was an email client, it owuld just show a window 
with the ability to send TO, CC, BCC and so on, with a send button 
in it...

This is how your email client would implement a CC or BCC.

depends on refinements. i don't recall if it does one with a list 
of emails, or several with one email address each.

I don't see the use of using /only, really...  With /show, I see 
all recipients whether or not /only is there - and without /show, 
with /only, it won't show any email address, and without /only, just 
it only shows the recipient.

Is there any way to send email in such a manner as to cause a window 
to pop up on the recepient's email client requesting confimation 
that they received the email?

oldes: great, now louis email address is webpublic :-)

Don't worry about that email address. It was a temporary one I created 
for test purposes.

Henrik: "Oldes: great, now louis email address is webpublic :-)"

No more so than by right-clicking on his name in the thread :-)

I have trouble sending a BCC email with the new send function. Can 
anybody verify ? (I am using authenticated smtp)

h: make system/standard/email [ BCC: [copy-:-domain-:-com]]

looking at send source, /show just clears the header to field, so 
it works when you send to multiple recipients and each one doesn't 
see who else received the email. When a message is sent to a single 
recipient the client shows the message is directed to you anyway. 
The trouble is this is not bcc

In this case, each message is individually addressed with only the 
recipient's email name appearing in the To field (similar to BCC 
addressing).

I think those fields are telling the email client how to send them. 
 It is up to you to implement them.

I can't think of any reason why an email client should ever receive 
an email with a bcc field.

Graham, I tried that but you get the same email than before with 
a different recipient but no BCC. I want to use BCC for some archiving 
project so I want to preserve the original To field like in real 
Bcc messages

Joe, I had problems with BCC in a corporate mass emailing I did. 
 Even though it did not display the email address in the mail client, 
if you viewed the header of the mail message the BCC content was 
there.

Joe, did you mean that the BCC field with all the addresses should 
appear in the header of every recipient's email ?

I will send him email to try ...

;-- Send as an SMTP batch or individually addressed:
        smtp-port: open [scheme: 'esmtp]
        either only [ ; Only one message to multiple addrs
                address: copy address
                ; remove non-email values
                remove-each value address [not email? :value]

                message: head insert insert tail net-utils/export header-obj newline 
                m
essage
                insert smtp-port reduce [from address message]
        ] [
                foreach addr address [
                        if email? addr [

                                if not show [insert clear header-obj/to addr]

                                tmp: head insert insert tail net-utils/export header-o
bj newline message

                                insert smtp-port reduce [from reduce [addr] tmp]
                        ]
                ]
        ]
        close smtp-port

ok got it running but does not seem like a normal *nix system.Mainly 
I was trying to find the /mnt dir and does not seem like it has 1 
?Also I got the email program set up and it dled my mail but was 
not able to open the folder ?

Yes, and basic browsing and email, listening music, watching video

re:drag and drop, yes that is what I meant, ie drag from a host partition 
to a "virtual" Syllable dir   guess the easiest way to get graphics/sounds 
to Syllable is via email or a web page.The reason for this is to 
test the graphics/sound apps in Syllable but since it comes with 
no sound/video files is the only way to test

the most simple way is to create a file /root/.forward with your 
email address in it

I am moving few domains of my friend to my server. However - he wants 
to access email, which means, I need to provide him with authenticated 
smtp. I have my old sendmail in simple mode - simply relying allowed 
from local 10* network, but not from the outside.


Has anyone succesfull configured sendmail, so that it would use authentication 
by username, password? My friend sent me following link, but I don't 
understand, what should I do :-) Hopefully I don't need to recompile 
sendmail :-)

http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/auth.html

or would you move email out from your server to gmail? Does it allow 
you to host your domain?

I thought so - more a groupware than a simple webmail interface to 
email, right? Most of us use Thunderbird anyway, so ...

does the sending of email through external smtp require that the 
server also accepts some connection? Could it be that the delay with 
iptables is too long somehow .. I notice that ssh login works visibly 
slower when setup

sending email works

Maxim is around.  I've been communicating with him mostly via email 
as he hasn't actually logged into AltME in a while...

arg  this email adress doesn't work any more <[cyphre-:-volny-:-cz]>:

I make a  zip archive SVG renderer  script lastest  + svg file for 
 blender  on my  ftp

reichart, I sent him an email with the question.

I wrote an email validator .. which works by doing an smtp challenge.

http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=email-check.r

Author should be ["author" email] -- this is due to the email requirement 
in the RSS specs (you can nix it easily in emit-rss code).

Hmm, I thought that the author format was supposed to be "Author 
<email>" but appears to be "email (Author)" -- did this change at 
some point?  (have to say, prefer Atom myself...)

OOPS! I have a problem send email with authentication required. using 
the following

clicking on the flikr link, I get "Not a valid email" 8)

Just ordered the SDK but I have not yet received the confirmation 
email. Is there usually a long delay?

I used master card. Still no email. 
I hope its being sold as I can't wait for r3...

what email acount did you use?

I received this via email. ...rebol-sdk-cmd-z2l7np..... Is there 
another place to download the latest?

Steve, I'm sending you what I have via email.

Here is a code snippet 
works in the console, 
fails after compile:
version 2.7.6
--------------------------
REBOL [ ]

   errorMailHeader: make system/standard/email [subject: "test error"]
   errorText: "this is an error"
   emailAddress: "[ben-:-someplace-:-com]"
   emailAddress: to-email emailAddress

   send/header emailAddress errorText errorMailHeader
--------------------------
after compile says:
** Script Error: send has no value
** Near: send/header [ben-:-someplace-:-com]" errorText errorMailHeader

any thoughts???

Ok now I found the URL to download SDK 2.7.8. There is download URL 
for 2.7.7 in the email that RT send me when I purchase. I changed 
the url and find the 2.7.8.

But I got 404 not found when I try 2.7.6. I'll send a msg to RT. 
Thank you.

May I use my license file for all of them? 2.7.6 to 2.7.8, or do 
I need to request a new license file as well?

I mean interact by email :-) or Altme !

i think i'll send all of you a reminder email with the tickets you 
requested, total money due and so on.

Could someone who has successfully downloaded Show05.zip email it 
to me (address shown by AltME is correct). Thanks in advance.

I used wxwidgets before... and it works... but I hate bloated stuff 
every day more and more... 

And Rebol way with one file download and simple text file few lines 
long working on linux and win just as it is............

Man, I'll wait for rebol3 and its modules and other more usefull 
stuff and wont look back.... :)

Until then I'll keep using rebol for stuff like ftp, email and simple 
interface stuff.....

Just got an email about this:
Micro Focus COBOL acquires Acucorp COBOL: http://www.acucorp.com/

Maybe it's time to do that COBOL dialect in REBOL!? ;-)

Adaptive A.I. Inc. launches commercial AGI-based virtual agent for 
call centers

Playa del Rey, California
January 12, 2009


Adaptive A.I. Inc. (a2i2) today released its first commercial product 
based on its artificial general intelligence (AGI) technology under 
development since 2001. It is a virtual call center operator that 
promises to propel speech-based interactive voice response (IVR) 
systems to much higher levels of performance.


Known as the SmartAction™ IVR System, it being sold and supported 
by a2i2’s recently formed commercial subsidiary, the Smart Action 
Company LLC.


The system is based on a2i2’s LiveAGI™ engine. Its integrated language 
processing, reasoning, memory, and knowledge-base capabilities allow 
it to hold smart, productive conversations. The LiveAGI brain manages 
conversation flow, meta-cognitive state (such as mood, degree of 
certainty and surprise), and determines when clarification or live-agent 
assistance is needed. Its built-in intelligence also allows the system 
to be taught new skills and knowledge, instead of these having to 
be custom programmed. Existing skills include email, as well as web 
and database interaction.


To achieve beyond state-of-the-art voice interaction, top of the 
line speech recognition technology is tightly integrated with the 
AGI brain to provide bi-directional benefits: The speech engine is 
dynamically tuned to current conversation context, while the cognitive 
engine analyzes multiple speech hypotheses for the most likely meaning 
and resolves ambiguities.


These innovations combine to provide solutions that significantly 
reduce the number of routine – and frequently boring and poorly handled 
-- calls taken by human agents while improving customer service levels. 
In addition to providing expected IVR capabilities such as 24/7 availability, 
consistent service quality, and the capacity to handle surges in 
call traffic, the SmartAction IVR System offers personalized responses 
by remembering the caller’s preferences, previous calls and other 
relevant data. Applied over multiple calls, callers don’t have to 
answer the same questions every time they call. If a call is interrupted, 
the system can call the customer back and pick up the conversation 
where it left off.


The company offers the SmartAction IVR System both as a hosted service 
and an in-house hardware-software turnkey solution. A web-based chat 
version is also available.


The ultimate purpose of a2i2’s LiveAGI Brain is to enable a major 
transformation of human-computer interfaces for a broad range of 
applications, such as websites, search engines, console and online 
games, virtual worlds, enterprise software, and consumer products. 
The company is currently researching and developing these applications, 
and under certain conditions will consider creating commercial versions 
in the near term.

if gurus are silent, not blogging, then we have to help ourselves 
somehow - this one is from ML, someone communicated with Carl :-)


Just a thought, but I sent an email to Carl asking if REBOL 3.0 would
have an embeddable component to it. His reply was:



 Thank you for your message...

Yes. We call that embedded REBOL, 
 and that method will be supported by
our REBOL 3.0 product.

validate-user has no refinement called update
Near : 	[if not validate-user/update request/content [err?: yes]]
Where : 	protected-exec

my email is good ...

Any feedback on this filter-validate-process dialect is velcome.. 
(it is meant for processing posted form data)

first word in row is request field name ;;; req | opt  is  required 
| optional + default value  ;;; than you can have a chain of aditional 
validators like int , string , email, url , one-word ;;; then you 
can have check which executes your custom code and if it returns 
a string it uses it as validation notice ( to check something app 
specific or in DB for example ) ;;; then you can process the value 
with do and again custom code the returned value of that block of 
code is set to that field ..

filter-validate-process-example: 
[
	id req and int .
	username req .

 email req and email check ( either email-exists email [ "email taken"] 
 [ none ] ) .
	website opt "" do ( to-visible-url website ) .
	adress opt "not given" .
]

ie. just use email

You can send me the patch by email.

What i sthe best way to have cheyenne send me an email alert when 
a user does something on my site (for example:  Leaves a comment 
on the comment page)


I tried to "launch" a small script but a new instance of cheyenne 
seems to start and continue running...I would think not desirable...

If you don't want to use email, you can use twitter instead ...

I just tested it and its seems fast enough....I guess I'm used to 
poor, slow connections with long hangs...	
Thanks for the suggestion Graham.


Its actually better this way as I can now include more info with 
the email such as who is sending it and what the message is...

I haven't had a reply yet from my email. Maybe another avenue should 
be tried...

CREATE TABLE users (
	id		INT(16) 	 PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
	login	VARCHAR(32)  NOT NULL,
	pasw	VARCHAR(32)  NOT NULL,
	email	VARCHAR(128) NOT NULL,
	vkey	VARCHAR(32)	 DEFAULT NULL,
	vdate	DATETIME 	 DEFAULT NULL,
	role	INT(8)  	 NOT NULL,
	deleted	BOOL		 NOT NULL,
	created	DATETIME 	 NOT NULL,
	modified DATETIME
);

change the email of course

yes, standard RT syntax includes column names


{insert into users ( login, pasw, email, vkey, vdate, role, deleted, 
created, modified ) values (? ... etc ) }  admin EE... blah ...

INSERT INTO users SET
	login		= 'admin',
	pasw		= 'EE10C315EBA2C75B403EA99136F5B48D',
	email		= ['default-:-curecode-:-org'],
	vkey		= '00000000000000000000000000000000',
	vdate		= NOW(),
	role		= 4,
	created	= NOW();

This works.

I think we unearthed a lot of things that we otherwise would just 
bump into along the way, anyway. I'm still not safe on the email 
issue, as the debug lines are still present.

Transparently for the user. Internally, like a normal MTA, getting 
the right MX, queuing outgoing emails on disk, retry sending a few 
times if required, inform back user (and admin optinaly) by email 
if sending failed.

I did this before ... http://www.rebol.org/view-script.r?script=email-check.r

There was several accounts not activated, I've switched them all 
on. I guess that the activation email didn't make it (using an old 
extension of SEND mezz command). It's time to upgrade CC to the new 
builtin email support API and MTA...

Reset password is giving me "Sorry, this page cannot be displayed. 
Try again or contact the web site administrator." after I submit 
id and email address

Fork: the mail agent script seems to break on sending emails to your 
address (don't know why). Your reset password attempt an hour ago 
failed. I will fix these email issues tomorrow.
