Hi list,
here is a workaround for the xSwap errors occuring with
Arachne script files (.asf). It may be useful for those who
like to automize mail transport (send, download, inbox)
in Arachne:
1. you need to download mail from only one pop3 account:
* Do not use .asf files for mail transport
* Instead call the mail functions with 'smtp:'
(you may want to link this to a hotkey SHIFTFn)
* Edit the correct data in arachne.cfg, e.g.
SMTPserver smtp.quick.cz
POP3server pop3.volny.cz
POP3username username
POP3password password
* Use another function arachne.cfg to create a chain of commands:
AfterSMTP pop3:
AfterPOP3 reload:inbox.dgi
* Instead of inbox you may 'call' even SSI files proceeded by the
Arachne add-on shtml.exe
2. you need to download mail from more than one pop3 account:
* Put smtp:// and the different pop3:// lines into the .asf script
(you may want to link this to a hotkey SHIFTFn)
* Do *not* use inbox.dgi as the last line of the script
* Instead you may insert mail.htm to the last line of the script
or write a simple maildone.htm that reminds the user how to call
the inbox (key I and R) and how to return to the home page.
* Probably even a REFRESH tag in maildone.htm that waits for a
few seconds and then returns to the home page is secure.
