sending an email (again)

[metroid]

Code: Select all

set emailtosendtoo "metroidz@gmail.com"
set sendmailprogram "/usr/sbin/sendmail"

bind msg m sendmail sendanemail

proc sendanemail { nick uhost hand arguments } {
global emailtosendtoo sendmailprogram 
                set mailme [open "|$sendmailprogram -t" w]
                puts $mailme "To: $emailtosendtoo"
                puts $mailme "From: $::botnick\@Quakenet"
                puts $mailme "Subject: blah test."
                puts $mailme "Test test test.\n"
                puts $mailme "blahblah blah."
                puts $mailme "cows go m00"
                puts $mailme "Hi, how are you?"
                close $mailme
	putlog "Moo!"
}

This should work shouldnt it? Yet when i try it, i get no email

experiment in your shell first

[user]

...and read your error messages. (the one about the missing variable)

[metroid]

There are no errors, but i just don't recieve the email. As i found sendmail on the shell but apparently i can't get it to work, I've already tested it on my shell

[KrzychuG]

There should be at least 2 errors about missing sendmail program and emailtosendtoo variables in sendemail procedure ;)

[metroid]

Fine edited, I was using different variables when i tested it thats why the global's didnt work

There are no errors when i'm testing it but the emails never arrive, When i close the mailme, does it send or what is it doing then?

[demond]

try to use the standard UNIX mail(1) utility (which is basically sendmail wrapper) to send mail to yourself; if this doesn't work, there is nothing you can do - complain to your admin to fix it

[metroid]

I've send an email to my shell admin and ill try to find out how to make it work

[metroid]

Well finally, i got it to work, But now, Is there any way i could make an eggdrop decrypt a password and send it in an email?

I'm working a command that works like Q's requestpassword.

/msg <bot> requestpassword <email>

*Bot sends an email with the password in it

But to my knowledge, there is no command that does this? correct?

you mean decrypting passwords?
if you don't have one-way-encryption or if you want to use brute-force, it is possible
other possibility: first send the password and then encrypt it.

[demond]

you can't decrypt eggdrop passwords (we're not talking cracking here), it's a one-way blowfish hash

[metroid]

I heard someone did crack eggdrop passwords though, and he used tcl for it

[demond]

I heard someone did crack eggdrop passwords though, and he used tcl for it

the password he cracked must have been "abcd" or similar

[metroid]

No, he could use whatever code he was using to crack any password, as blowfish always gives the same encryption to a password

[demond]

crack any password?

now that's what they call an urban legend...

I give you my encrypted eggdrop password, you give it to your friend, he cracks it, you break into my bot, I paypal you 1000 dollars. Deal?
