I am playing with the msgbase.save_msg functions.

Is there a list of the properties for the hdr ?

I want to make it send an email from sysop to
a user and need to know how to pass the users email address to the save_msg funciton so it posts as an email. I have it posting locally (ala the chkspace.js) but where do I uput the email address

Cheers

Not currently.

If you want it to go out as netmail (Internet e-mail), then you must add the to_net_addr and to_net_type header fields. Example: hdr.to_net_addr="rob@synchro.net";
hdr.to_net_type=NET_INTERNET;

When you create your new message make sure it's referencing the "mail"
message base, something along the lines of:

New_mail_object = new MsgBase("mail");

Thanks, that worked.

Is there a hdr.from_net_addr or something so I can make the email
look lik eit has come from a different email address?
I am using hdr.from="system operator" and it sends it from "system.operator@mydomain"
I want it to be sent from System Operator (display name) but use the email of merlin@mydomain
or is there a reply_to bit?

Yes, there is.

I want it to be sent from System Operator (display name) but use the email o merlin@mydomain

Yes, there's also replyto_net_addr and replyto_net_type, but you don't really need to use them if you change the from_net_addr/type.
