-- attempted conversion to lua5 by bolamix Feb. 27 2005
-- successful conversion to lua5 by Jelf March 9 2005
-- usage: send a PM to the bot with   

path = "messages" -- name of the folder where the message files will be stored
ext = ".msg" -- extension for the message files
command = "!mail"
botname = frmHub:GetHubBotName() -- or use whatever botname you want then uncomment the following 3 lines

--function Main()
--	frmHub:RegBot( botname )
--end
