I'm not sure if this is exactly correct (man mail to be sure), but I think you can do something like this: sprintf(buf, "mail %s < newbie_help.txt &", ch->email); system(buf); Assuming you have a variable ch->email for a player's email address, and a newbi help file named as above in your lib directory (maybe put it in lib/text instead) I think this will send the helpfile to their address. Somebody point out the security hole in this, since I'm sure one exists. Sam
