MAIL-SENDING (continued)

@mail/proof This shows you the message that is currently in progress, as it would be read by whomever received it.

@mail/edit <old text> = <new text> Like @edit, but edits the message in process.

@mail/abort This aborts the message currently in progress, allowing you to start a new one.

@mail/fwd <msg> = <player-list> This sends a copy of <msg> to all the players in <player-list>. The copy will appear to have been sent by you (not the original sender), and its status will be "Forwarded". Note that this places the message to be forwarded into your mail buffer, where you can edit it with @mail/edit, add text with '-', or prepend text with '~'. You have to use '--' or @mail/send to send the message.

@mail/quick <player-list>/<subject> = <message> Sends <message> to the list of players.

{ 'help mail-sending3' for more }

MAIL-SENDING (continued)

@mail/reply[/quote] <message> This starts a working message to the person who sent you <msg>.

@mail/replyall[/quote] This starts a working message to the person who sent you <msg> and to every other recipient of <message>.

In both cases, because this is a reply, the subject line will be:

'Re: <subject line from original message>'

Also, in both cases, if /quote is specified, the original message will be quoted into the working message with a header and footer much like the following:

You can add additional text above or below the quoted material with the post-pend ('-') and prepend ('~') @mail commands. Like, normal outgoing @mail, the reply is finished and sent with '--' on a line by itself
