nordik,<br><br>We just installed 3.8.7 and we had to install CommandByMail separately, along with adding it to the plugins. That's no problem and it works well. There are some readme instructions for how to use it, but basically, the command lines are "CF{name of CF}: value" (minus the quotes, of course). I ran into a problem with a "text" CF, or more accurately, ran into a problem with my email editor. Our email editor adds a newline delimiter when it does a wrap on content and CBM stops loading the value of a CF the moment it see a newline delimiter. So, when I enter more than 58 to 60 charaters (the point at which the email editor adds a newline delimiter), the rest gets dropped. So, keep that in mind.<br>
<br>Good luck.<br><br>Kenn<br>LBNL<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 16, 2010 at 1:00 AM, nordik24 <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:nordik24@gmail.com">nordik24@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
