HOW TO SETUP CONTIKI EMAIL
--------------------------
The email client made available at http://c64web.com/contiki.html
(Download: Contiki-2.1-unsupported-email-clent-c64) is a program
that can send email (but cannot receive email).

You must first make sure that the CONTIKI.CFG file is configured
correctly to your network.  Please go to http://cbm8bit.com/contiki/
and create this file and install it on the D64 image where the
email client resides (if you haven't done so already).

To navigate menu buttons and form fields in Contiki, use F5 and F7.
Use F1 and F3 to navigate the menus at the top of the screen.

When you first run the Contiki Email Client, you will be asked to
provide some configuration settings.  Enter your email address in
the following format: USERNAME@DOMAINNAME.COM.  Then find out
your ISP's SMTP server (you may have to call them or look at their
support website if you don't know what it is).  Then you type it
the appropriate field.  If you find that the email client cannot
send email later on, try putting in the IP address of the SMTP
server (just opoen a terminal or cmd window and then PING the SMTP
address) in this field.

After you press OK, you can type in the email address of the person
that you want to contact.  Because of a bug with the current version
(2.2.1 as of this writing) of the Contiki email client for the C64,
you MUST enter the email address in the following format:

USERNAME (SHIFT *) DOMAINNAME.COM

The reason you have to do this is because the email program will
convert the SHIFT * character into an @ symbol.  If you were to type
in the email address normally (with an @ symbol), the email program
would convert the @ symbol to an apostrophe (').  You can also send
a 'carbon copy' of the email to another address (personally, I just
CC it to my own address) by typing it in the CC field.

*** PLEASE NOTE: you only perform the preceding instruction
regarding SHIFT * when writing an email message.  You DO NOT do this
when typing in the email address in the setup/configuration window!

After this you do this, you can type in the Subject of the message
followed by the Body.  In the body, you are limited to the space that
is shown on the screen.  However, you can move around that very space
by using the cursor keys so that you can modify previous lines that
you have typed in.  Please note that this version of Contiki Email
does not supporting word wrapping, so you will have to press RETURN
yourself after reaching the end of a line.

After this, you can press the SEND button and if configured correctly,
it should be sent successfully.  You can use the X button to quit
out of the Compose message window or the ERASE button to start a
message over.  If you need to go back to the configuration window
just use F1 to run Setup again.
