Passwords

[jdiegel]

I have three Ryzom passwords now. Profile, forums, and game.

Yet I still can't change my forum handle...

Unfortunately for me, this is a BAD thing, I have never been able to read the newsletters sent to me from there automated servers do to the fact that there is nothing in it.

Can you change the type of mail sent from html to plain text for those of us who have issues with your french email system?

Thanks

French email system? Exactly what is that? The newsletter you receive is the North American newsletter. Unfortunately it is only done in HTML at the moment, there is no idea when we will make a text version.

Sent from an NA server and unable to do it as plain text.. as a programmer who has developed dozens of web mail automated systems in several languages, I seriously don't believe this.

French system = odd ball system without a name.

[vb]
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<%@ Import namespace = "System.Web.Mail" %>

<script language="vb" runat="server">


function SendMail(messagebody as string, fullto as string)
Dim entirebody as string = messagebody
Dim objMM as New MailMessage()
dim smtpfromname as string = "Nervax"
dim smtpfromaddress as string = "automated@nervax.com"
dim entiresubject as string = "Here is your information."
objMM.From = smtpfromname & "<" & smtpfromaddress & ">"
objMM.To = fullto
objMM.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text
objMM.Priority = MailPriority.High
objMM.Subject = entiresubject
objMM.Body = entirebody
smtpmail.smtpserver = "NervaxWebMailServer"
smtpmail.send(objMM)
End Function
</script>
[/vb]

Notice the objMM.BodyFormat line, this can be either MailFormat.Text or MailFormat.HTML

Give me the coding language and I will give you a solution.

Zumwalt,

I do not send the newsletter out and I do not code the newsletter. I am a messenger, so putting code on the forum is not going to help, nor is telling me you don't believe me. When I tell you there is no immediate plans to make it into text format that is the truth, take it or leave it. And I'm not sure what exactly this has to do with "Passwords". Your concerns have been noted, now back to the topic.

[zumwalt]

Not offering a solution to paid subscribers is also not an option, you can pass that on to the developers.

As you have so gracefully put it to me, you can take it or leave it.

Its up to you as our liazon to pass on this problem to the powers that be, or just drop the issue as a non issue.

That response was extremly agrivating coming from you.

Edit:

What this has to do with passwords, if Nervax sends out an email to everyone via what ever system there using and its not in plain text but in html format that is non standard, and the user who's password they reset can't read it, that is a Nervax problem that needs fixed immediately, thats what it has to do with passwords.

Hi Zumwalt,

The past emails and newsletters have actually come in a text and .html. This one was sent in .html only. It is know it can be done, she was just saying she didn't know of any immediate plan to go back to sending both.

I am not sure what a "french mail system" has to do with anything. It is sent via a standard system. .html emails can be read with virtually all current email clients. It is generally a choice to not use .html and not a need. I get the same emails in my client and the .html is not unreadable in Outlook, Eudora, Thunderbird, or Yahoo. I have seen issues where people were getting strange unreadable code, but forwarding to another email client (Yahoo at the time) definitely made it readable.

I am not saying this is the most convenient solution for everyone deciding to not accept .html, but it is a solution.

Best regards,

[zumwalt]

That being beside the point, I use Domino R5 as my mail client, never have an issue with any other HTML mail documents that come in, but anything from Nervax comes in as just the header image and footer image, no content inbetween.

I know how to also get into the code behind the document that is received, I have no spam interceptor inplace or a filter rule of any kind, if it was something as simple as just reading the HTML content itself, this would not be an issue, the issue is, the current system Nervax uses, looses content somewhere along the line.

As stated here, I have no issues from other companies using standard HTML as content in email (sams club, verizon, teco, big's, etc etc etc), heaven knows I get enough spam mail daily that is in html content.

I would just appreciate it if they were to send out the emails in text format instead or including html, because of the issue, resetting my password, then not giving it to me in a fassion I can read is unacceptable.
