Message / Direct
For real men. You can enter an address to send a
message to direct into the window, without looking it
up.
3 entries are necessary;
Server: The Server over which the message
should be despatched. (This only appears
when you have more than 1 server)
The first letter(s) of the box-name are
sufficient.
Addressee The name of the recipient. OpenXP
completes the name as necessary with the
address from the User List, or with .ZER
(not much use now that .ZER is no longer
used).
Recipients not in the User list are
emphasised by emphasis of the word
"recipient".
Subject The Subject line for your message.
You can enter one of the pre-defined short-names
as defined under /Edit/Short names instead of the
complete address.
Fido: In Fido you can enter a part of the
address and select the correct completion from the
node-list.
