Hello. I just want to know, if its possible to do this:

for example: you download my game and when you scored more that 1000 point, the "game" will send
automatically email to me with informations about you, your adress and I will send you some package with somethign. (with post)

Is this possible?

(Its just an example) :D

I think this is possible by using the openurl function and opening a mailto:you@gmail.com&subject=1000points

This will probably open up in outlook express or what ever email client they use for non-browser emails.

Hmm..maybe. But there is one problem. Lets say that I will give to every person 1$ who
earn 1000pt. ( I won't :D )

So, how could I know, that if you earn 1000pt, you cant tell the email to your friend and I
must send to both of you 1$, so thats 2$ ! :S

This is little bit problematic.

Is there any way to secure this?

Thank you,

CAmPeR :)

BINGO!
IDEA!
Use the openurl to send you to a congrats page, with a form for the info, with the form action leading to a php page
which puts together the email, and sends it, without showing you where it sent it!
It's a matter of putting together an email in raw format (adding a few headers and content) and then using I think the php mail(something); function, though I'm not sure how it goes exactly... But that way it's possible to do everything completely secretly!

:wink:
