Specify E-Mail Address
$email_address address_part [address_part ...]
This command specifies the address to be used for an e-mail broadcast item. When this command is used, the $fax_phone and $voice_phone commands are normally omitted from the FS file.
If both this command and a fax or voice phone command is given, then both methods of transmission will be attempted in turn. If $email_options "second" is given, then the e-mail will be tried only if the fax/voice outbound operation fails. Otherwise, the e-mail will be attempted first and only if it fails will the fax/voice operation be tried. This feature would allow an e-mailed WAV file to replace a voice outbound call, or an e-mailed DOC attachment to replace a faxed document converted to faxable TIFF.
The parameter on this command is used as follows:
| address_part | components of a single e-mail address in the format described below |
The supplied address parts are combined on the e-mail 'To:' header, separated by space characters. Double-quote characters have no special significance and are passed to the e-mail header line exactly "as-is". For compatibility with earlier releases, double-quote characters may also be preceded by the macro-expansion character (default `).
The use of angle-brackets to enclose the actual address is required if you also supply other text such as a name. If there is a right angle-bracket '>' in the string, the text preceding it and the following the preceding left angle-bracket '<' is taken as the effective e-mail address when looking up the mail server for the domain. Otherwise, the tokens on either side of the '@' are used as the address.
Double-quotes in or surrounding the actual e-mail address are accepted but deprecated. If double-quotes surround the whole actual e-mail address, no other address parts should be included. Other than this, text enclosed inside double-quotes and inside parentheses is treated as a comment and discarded.
The supplied text is assumed to be encoded as ISO-8859-1 unless this has been overridden with $email_charset. Unquoted words outside the actual e-mail address which contain characters not in the ASCII character set will be encoded as described in RFC2047.
The default macro-expansion character on all $email... commands is an ASCII grave accent character (`).
Default: none (required command for e-mail)
