This e-mail script is not working. Wether in an editor od direct pasted into the REBOL VIEW Ide. !

Hello ,

this simple e-mail client from the absolute beginners manual is definetly NOT working.

1. Not in an programmers editor and linked to the REBOLVIEW.exe

2. Not with direct pasting in the REBOLVIEW ide window.

The GUI is starting. After klicking the Button for settings the SMTP window appears.

When you input data and click Enter always the same error message appears.

It has nothing to do with the kind of editor , because direct pasting is also not working. The same error.

Hans,

Below is a working version. What you need to do is copy "request-text"
from every line of your script, FORM it, and print each char as an
integer value. You will see that some lines have the soft hyphen in
them.

Hello Gregg ,

you can't believe what a studpid bullshit is the reason for the errors.

I have printed all the Rebol manuals from Internet with a PDF printer and make me

a little library for studying.

When you copy and paste the code from PDF ( no matter what reader) ,

into an editor , then everything seems normal.

The code looks like original typed.

But the error you say are in there.

So i have saved the REBOL manuals as a html document.

That works. Copy and paste.

In practice not every code from manual is typed with keyboard. Many are copied.

Many whuuuu and whoooo   for nothing.  ha ha

Thanks again for your help

WBR

Hans

Glad you got it working Hans. I didn't know PDF would do that.
