    From Willowolf@VERT/WOLFGROT to All on Sat Nov 22 10:46:00 2003
    I'm having problems with this:


    NO_YES "\r\nLeave Feedback?"
    IF_FALSE
    SETSTR "1"
    MAIL_SEND_FEEDBACK
    END_IF

    All I get is a loop. If I say "YES" to "Leave Feedback?" it goes right back to the "Leave Feedback?" question.

    I've tried this alone, all by itself in it's own .BIN file, and I still have the same problem. I've also tried MAIL_SEND and had the same result.

    If anyone has any ideas about this, or another way to send feedback without using the MAIL_SEND or MAIL_SEND_FEEDBACK functions I would appreciate the advice.

    I'm running Synchronet v3.10l beta on Windows 2000 Pro.


    Thanks,

    This is the way it's done when you hit N for Note to Sysop.

    cmdkey N
    setstr "1"
    mail_send_feedback
    end_cmd

    Make sure you haven't named the file feedback.src/bin. There's an obscure feature where if a module named exec/feedback.* exists, Synchronet will automatically execute it when sending feedback to the sysop (the filename is hard-coded, not configurable). Anyway, using a different name for your module should fix the problem.

    "obscure feature" - heh. <G> I like that one, haven't heard that before. I did hear "unplanned feature" in place of "bug" though. :)

    The name of this optional "feedback module" will be configurable in some future Synchronet version, and at that point it will no longer be obscured. :-)

    Heh, for now it's just obfuscated. :P
