    That's pretty good. I thought that maybe you had transposed the
    letters for...

    $TNF - T)he F)irst N)ame of the recipient

    ..and meant to use $TFN instead.

    This another mispelling in the %help:

    This "You may use macros in the user profile for greeting and
    cocnclusion."

    ..should probably be:

    "You may use macros in the user profile for %greeting and
    %conclusion."

    Hi, August!

    Also as
    $SFN - the sender first name.
    $RFN - the full name of the recipient.

    If you're using "FN" to represent First Name, perhaps the $TNF should be $TFN.

    And.. "cocnclusion" should be "conclusion" so that the whole line reads:

    "You may use macros in the user profile for %greeting and %conclusion."

    What's the difference what I was thinking when I was choosing letters for the macro? It doesn't matter what letters are there. They do not need to be memorized. It is enough to use once, having a prompt in front of your eyes. ;)

    This another mispelling in the %help:

    This "You may use macros in the user profile for greeting and cocnclusion."

    ..should probably be:

    "You may use macros in the user profile for %greeting and

    Thanks. I did what you think is more correct.

    Have nice nights.

    In short. There is a certain set of characters that is replaced with certain attributes of the message. What difference does it make if this character set is decoded at all?

    "You may use macros in the user profile for %greeting and

    Fixed.

    YES you did! My request/joke was just for mere $'s not $$'s.
    :O I will have to frame the payment. :)

    Perhaps I can mail you something from this collection:

    BTW.. did you receive my gpg email? MEANWHILE, I discovered that my blackberry has native Openpgp support, but I have to figure out how to use it.

    Thanks again for your good sportmanship!

    I am completely confused. ;)

    THAT, I doubt very much! LOL

    But I think maybe something is getting lost in translation.

    What did you intend the letters T N F to stand for?

    If it's "TO NAME: FIRST", then I get it.

    I was just thinking that since you use $SFN for:

    SENDER FIRST NAME, then

    TO FIRST NAME = $TFN, would follow the established convention a bit better.


    In short. There is a certain set of characters that
    is replaced with certain attributes of the message.
    What difference does it make if this character set
    is decoded at all?

    I get it. The macros could have been $TTT, $SSS or something. They are just "code" and could be anything you would want. It's your bot afterall.. ;)

    Thanks again for considering all these extra options for %userprofile.
