I have been playing around with the shortcuts since installing WM5Menu, and trying to make life generally easier, and without as many clicks.
I am now looking to set up a shortcut to set up a text message to a person, with the body of text set up as a template. The problem I am having is thet in the shortcut command bar it only allos for a single line of text, whereas I would like the body spread over several lines.
For example I would like the text to '123' with teh body of text of:
abc
def
ghi
But the command line goes - "\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "123" -body "abc def ghi"
What character can I enter (if any) to create an 'enter/return' effect?
is there nobody out there with any ideas for this??
just incase anybody is out there looking at this,i managed to find the answer.
You simply type \n into the text and it creates an enter effect....

Hi.
Sending message can be timeconsuming sometimes, ie. when you try to compose new SMS message if your last message was MMS, than selected account is MMS and hiting NEW/MESSAGE will bring up MMS composer.
But there is a simple way, by using tmail command line parameteres.
Examples:
simply going directly to SMS inbox is done by:
Code:
tmail.exe -transport "SMS"
opening new SMS composer window without recipient:
Code:
tmail.exe -transport "SMS" -to ""
creating new MMS with given recipient(s), subject, body and attachment:
Code:
tmail.exe -transport "MMS" -to "48689898665" -cc "48506325889" -bcc "[email protected]" -subject "simple subject" -body "simple MMS body" -attach "/My Documents/nice_chick.jpg"
etc.
The most convenient way of using above exaples are by creating shortcuts of course, but you must remember, that attributes must be placed inside quotation marks. They can't be (i think so escaped, so when creating shortcut remember to remove global line quotation.
Example:
This will NOT work:
Code:
#"\Windows\tmail.exe -transport "SMS" -to """
Code:
This will work:
#\Windows\tmail.exe -transport "SMS" -to ""
Happy hacking
is there a way to create a shortcut to a new e-mail message ?
thanks in advance.
Just use "POP3" as the transport..
this still doesn't work for me :-(
i'm using tmail.exe -transport "POP3" -to " "
which still opens a new blank text message
thanks for your help - much appreciated !
I can't get an .ink with the command for new-sms to work with my Hermes WM6.1..anyone know if there's a different command for the wm6.1 tmail.exe?

Hasn't this been discussed on the Forum multiple times over and in multiple places. Well heck I know it has b/c your copy/pasting the examples out of those other threads to show your examples. In the process of being helpful, thank you; you are muddying up the forum.
CG.. you're wasting your breath.
this thread is from 19-07-2005 by the way..
I searched with google to try to find the answer to my problem, as I'm not a programmer and just one of the pplz who look for info on how to set up their device..
I just installed WM6.1 and I am going to use the stock SMS Program. I would like to have a SMS Softkey on the home screen so when I press it it opens up text messaging. I know how to edit the registry and I already have it saying SMS I just dont know the value to put in so it opens up Text messaging and not just messaging in general?
Also if there is a way to change the left soft key in text messaging from Delete to New that would make my day!!!
To get it to point to Text Messaging, make sure your link points to
"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS"
Is there any way of assigning the sms inbox to one on the hardware keys?
Thanks in advance
For sure. Get yourself a Registry Editor (there are multiple ones; I prefer the one form resco that comes with Resco Explorer, which is shareware, but you can also use PHMRegedit I think it's called, that's free). Then change this key:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112]
"Default"="Start"
"Open"=":MSINBOX"
Default will contain the label of the button on homescreen, Open the file to open. :MSINBOX should directly take you to your inbox. I think you could also use "poutlook.exe -service "SMS" -inbox" instead of :MSINBOX, this would always take you to your SMS inbox. :MSINBOX goes to last-opened.
hey thnks for the rept but after typing in ;msinbox nothing happens when i press the hardware key :S
It's a : and not ;. If you did this correct and it still doesn't work, try this instead of :MSINBOX
Code:
tmail.exe -service "SMS"
Hello all,
I've had my Pro for two days now, and I'm working on changing the softkeys with a registry editor called "PHM Registry Editor".
Right now, I've got my right soft key set to bring up my SMS inbox, but I want it to bring up a "new SMS".
The value data is currently set at: "\Windows\tmail.exe"
What is the file path I need to use so it will bring up a new SMS as opposed to my whole inbox?
Thanks so much to anyone who can help!
PS: I would appreciate "lamens terms", if possible - I'm not too tech savvy!
I've been trying all day to get it to go directly to a New SMS, but to no avail. All I can get it to do is go to my SMS inbox....
Any help??
If not, can I change the "delete" softkey that appears inside of the sms inbox to a "new" function??
I hate that I have to hit like 5 buttons to send a damn text message!!!
Please help!!!
"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to ""-body"

I'm doing this and its still taking me directly to my inbox... Any thoughts?
A gift for you...
Unzip and copy smssender.exe somewhere to your phone - program files folder is a good place. Assign a shortcut to it, and then assign one of your softkeys to the shortcut.
Voila... 1 tap to start sending an sms!
