Hi Critter,
As Rob has said, you need to be more specific when describing your problem. There is also a sticky on this forum with suggestions for people having problems with the autoemailer. Failing that, you can always reach me at support@ssg.com.au.

Regards
AlexS

i start game. i choose e-mail game. put in addresses..select senerio..options..take turn..press the end turn button that returns me to main screen.. then i hit the exit and send button..
up pops ....E-mail file error: an error has been created in your e-mail file... and gives me the option to leave the game or not..
This happenes every time..no matter what server i use or who's address i use.

Questions
1) do i use e-mail address on both the allied / axis players name and the e-mail address lines?
2) what should i put in the file name line?
3) do i use the @ symbol that lights up or use the one on my k-board?

i know i aint the sharpest tool in the shed..but i really like this system..and for the first time in years i have willing "human "victims/teachers.. But its getting frustrating.. plz have mercy on an elder gamer who cut his teeth on tactics 2.. thx guys Critter

Here's a quick rundown on your questions and something to trouble shoot:

Have you installed both patch 1.10 and then 1.11 in order? Have to do each and in order.

Questions
1) do i use e-mail address on both the allied / axis players name and the e-mail address lines? YES
2) what should i put in the file name line? Any name for your file (keep simple, 8 letters or less, no spaces recommended)
3) do i use the @ symbol that lights up or use the one on my k-board? Use either
