DirectXtras is pleased to announce a new version (2.1) of DirectEmail
Xtra.
About DirectEmail Xtra:
-----------------------
DirectEmail is a cross-platform, easy to use Scripting Xtra for
Macromedia Director, Authorware and Shockwave that provides applications
with the ability to reliably send e-mails, send faxes as well as
validate e-mail addresses.
Emails can be sent in either plain text or rich HTML format, in various
languages, and can include file attachments.
DirectEmail Xtra provides applications with the most reliable way to
send e-mails. The Xtra does not depend on any other external application
and can send e-mails with or without relaying through a mail server
as long as there is an active Internet connection.
Furthermore, the Xtra provides applications with precise error
information in case of any failure in the e-mail or fax delivery,
allowing applications to act appropriately hence insuring that no
e-mails or faxes will get lost.
DirectEmail Xtra can send e-mails through a relaying mail server or
take on the role of a mail server and deliver e-mails directly to the
recipient's email account.
The Xtra is available for Director 5 and above, Authorware 4 and above,
and is compatible with Windows 9X and newer (including 2000, ME, NT, XP)
as well as MacOS 8, 9 and X.
DirectEmail Xtra is Shockwave safe and therefore it can also be used
with Shockwave 7 or newer and when safety features in Director are
turned on.
An auto downloadable Shockwave safe package of DirectEmail Xtra is also
available. It is a compressed, small sized (about 30K) version of
the Xtra, that can be downloaded automatically from a web site to the
user's local machine whenever needed, and once installed provides
Shockwave applications on the web with the ability to send e-mails
and faxes.
