Any ideas on this one? or suggestions? I had thought about this myself...as well as giving each player on the mud an email address...just use a string in the TO field. so that players could send and receive email using mudmail. I gave up, or postponed this idea until I could figure out a secure way of doing this. I'm not sure it's a good idea at all......I would also be interested in seeing what everyone else thinnks of this. Justin - Primacy Ruin!
