SUMMARY
When a script is run, if HyperCard gives the error message &quot;Can't understand msmail,&quot; this means that the function needs a verb in front of it, as follows:

put msmail(....

get msmail(...

add msmail(....

A line can't begin with

msmail(....



MORE INFORMATION
The function msmail takes its arguments and returns a mailresult or data variable. It is not a HyperTalk action verb. Note: If &quot;put&quot; is used preceding the function, use the following form:

put msmail(...) into

If &quot;into &quot; is left off, the result or data will be put into the message box and the message box will appear.
