Lachesis Report post Posted April 1, 2006 Dear EL friends, repeatedly an offline message system for EL has been requested, but unfortunately it could not be implemented so far. The good news is, a friend of mine kindly released her code for an EL post office bot that can store PM for later retrieval by their recipient. I'm planning to set up an instance of it for public usage. The bot is supposed to be called mailman (no warranty on the name yet), and for now it will be accessible via the commands /mailman #send user text /mailman #fetch user /mailman #fetch all Later on, I'm considering supplying a client patch that automatically sends offline messages when a user is not available and fetches them upon login. Then, you will be able to use PM just like in ICQ or other offline message capable chat systems. With Regards Lachesis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torg Report post Posted April 1, 2006 you are a little late, gossip does that And before gossip, iknow has done it for a while. Although, iknow's implementation is a little buggy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scafativ Report post Posted April 2, 2006 Actually, Gossip does all of this, and isn't buggy. There's no need to "fetch" messages from her, because she senses when you're on and delivers them automatically. WHat's nice about this is: you can send messages to players who don't even know about her, and they'll get them automatically. If you PM her about something else, she'll give you your messages then too. Soon, she'll be able to forward your messages to your email, if that is your preference.
