Does anyone use this ? Merchant's Friend
I downloaded it last night and the download went ok. I also had to download .net as well.
Everything seems ok but When I come to load up my e-mails I get an error of some sort (can't remember the exect error, at work now) All that gets up loaded is 1 e-mail. I have about 90 e-mails altogether, about 50 of them are vendor e-mails.
Can anyone help me with the problem or point me to another programme that is simular to Merchants Friend ?
Cheers

I use this program for about half a year now, with no issues.
Maybe there's an issue with one of the other e-mails, which stops the program from importing the rest.
When you're back from work, could you try again and check for the error message?

I'll do that.
From memory, the error was something about an 'execption' or something. The details were saying something about e-mail numbers not being lower than zero. It happend when I tried to open files from live. It asked if I want to carry on or quit. If I carry on I just get the 1 mail up-loaded.

If I remember rightly its caused by a , in the subject of a mail. Since you only get 1 mail up when you continue it should be easy to find that naughty mail and delete it. It will be in your SWG > Profiles > Server > Mails folder.
Then, hopefully, it will work ok *crosses lekku*

I have found out what the problem is. Yeah !!
For some reason SWG puts an extra space in some of my vendor e-mail's. Where it says this for example:
399385728
SWG.Corbantis.auctioner
Vendor Sale Complete
TIMESTAMP: 1113316821
Vendor: Accessories has sold Decorated Belt By Annod to__kkiya asai for 969 credits.
The sale took place at Naboo, on Naboo.
SWG.Corbantis.auctioner
Vendor Sale Complete
TIMESTAMP: 1113316821
Vendor: Accessories has sold Decorated Belt By Annod to__kkiya asai for 969 credits.
The sale took place at Naboo, on Naboo.
The red line is where the extra space is. When I delete the extra space from the email, from my swg mail file, it works fine (using notepad to read the mail). This happend with 6 out of 87 e-mails. I have to go through each e-mail and check for the extra space.
I have no idea why SWG mail does this but at least I can fix the problem.

Means nothing to me. What software do I need to be able to read the mails on my PC ?

Means nothing to me either!
I use the SWG Mail Manager to read my mails offline, you should then easilly see which mail is causing the problem (if it is the , that is doing it) or just open the mails from your swg mail file using notepad.
SWG Mail Manager can be found here
