rebol665 vs pat665
[1/7] from: rebol665:ifrance at: 20-Nov-2002 14:00
Hi List,
I have lost pat665 ! Let me explain :
A few days ago, I was using Outlook Express to send post to the list. To do
that, I had a special email address [rebol665--ifrance]. However, for OE the
user was still "pat665".
When I look on eScribe at my "old" posts, I see something like this :
[REBOL] A font problem with pdf-maker, pat665, Sun, 3 Nov 2002 08:59:06
[REBOL] Re: pdf-maker example, pat665, Sun, 3 Nov 2002 05:04:00
[REBOL] Re: pdf-maker example, pat665, Sat, 2 Nov 2002 08:18:50
Now I send my mail with Rebol, and my post on eScribe are like this
[REBOL] [OT], rebol665, Wed, 20 Nov 2002 04:05:13
Inside OE, I can see also a change in the "From" column: before I was
pat665
, now I am [rebol655--ifrance--com] .
The code I am using is like this:
>> header: make system/standard/email [
[ To: [pat665--ifrance--com]
[ From: [rebol665--ifrance--com]
[ Reply-To: [rebol665--ifrance--com]
[ Subject: "Testing"
[ Organization: "REBOL Base"
[ X-mailer: [REBOL]
[ MIME-Version: 1.0
[ Content-Type: "text/plain"
[ ]
>> if error? try [send/header [pat665--ifrance--com] "A test" header][
[ request/ok "Bong !"
[ ]
== none
;
; This one appears with From = [rebol665--ifrance--com]
;
I have tried to change the header/from like this :
>> header: make system/standard/email [
[ To: [pat665--ifrance--com]
[ From: { "pat665" <[rebol665--ifrance--com]>}
[ Reply-To: [rebol665--ifrance--com]
[ Subject: "Testing"
[ Organization: "REBOL Base"
[ X-mailer: [REBOL]
[ MIME-Version: 1.0
[ Content-Type: "text/plain"
[ ]
>> if error? try [send/header [pat665--ifrance--com] "A test" header][
[ request/ok "Bong !"
[ ]
== none
;
; This one appears with From = "pat665", but ...
;
My big problem is that email with such header never make it to the list. I
know it is a bit long and confused, but does anyone have a clue about how to
bring back pat665?
ciao
Pat665
Note: this post is send with OE.

Add/edit 'set-user-name "" in your %user.r. I think this will give your
name back. :)

Hi mb,
Thanks for the reply, but my 'set-user-name is correct.
I think the answer is with the mail header.
I don't know where to put the "user-name".
This header is ok for Outlook, but when I post to the list it is not working.
I think the post is not considered valid.
header: make system/standard/email [
To: [pat665--ifrance--com]
From: { "pat665" <[rebol665--ifrance--com]>}
Reply-To: [rebol665--ifrance--com]
Subject: "Testing"
Organization: "REBOL Base"
X-mailer: [REBOL]
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: "text/plain"
]
if error? try [send/header [pat665--ifrance--com] "A test" header][
request/ok "Bong !"
]
Ciao

Are you not posting to yourself?
Should not your To: line look like this:
To: [rebol-list--rebol--com]
If you are also setting the From: address
to a different one than your real email
address, then I think most email servers
will stop you, because that's how you
create anonymous email.
Perhaps try:
From: system/user/email
which I hope you had set correctly to start with :)
Anton.

Hi Pat,

Did you try:
From: {pat665 <[rebol665--ifrance--com]>}
(I don't think that's the problem, but trying doesn't cost us
anything. :-)
Regards,
Gabriele.

Hi Gabriele,
I have just been testing your idea (not *this* message which I caught in
Outlook), and I am waiting for the result.
Thanks

You can try :
From: rejoin ["pat665" " <" [rebol665--ifrance--com] ">"]
Only difference in email I can see is:
From: "pat665" <[rebol665--ifrance--com]>
From: pat665 <[rebol665--ifrance--com]>
In betas you can remove this line, if you use standard REBOL settings.
'Send set header/from field (if it not exists) from system/user/name
and system/user/email . See source of 'send.
