I
guess, this is harder than I thought. Can you be a little more specific ? what

Thanks

Subject: [IMail Forum] Creating Program Alias variable ?Hey guys,I'm trying to set a variable within the program alias but I don't seem to be successful at all.Here is what I'm trying to do,I created a program alias named mkdir. and there is a batch file called mkdir.bat and code in the batch file goes like this,*******cd c:\mkdir %1*******Now the "%1" part is the variable as you can see, I'd like to be able to call that %1 by sending an email .(so if I want to create a folder named 20, I should enter 20 .... into the subject or body to be sent to mkdir alias.I remember that I saw something similar to this, but can't find and it. Any ideas?Thank you.Serhan.
