Dear all, I have done a maintenance build of the Wrapper which fixes a couple of bugs and has some translation corrections in it. See below for further info. You don’t necessarily need to upgrade unless you think one of the bugs mentioned below might affect you. To upgrade you should uninstall the old Wrapper first, you won’t lose your config or data, then download and install this version.

Bug fix. Error bubble saying "A generic error occurred in GDI+" appearing after several days of continuous, one minute interval, email polling. Caused by Microsoft bug ID 345656. Fixed and tested.

Bug fix. Failure to correctly download email file attachments where a colon was used in the game title. Caused by the colon making it into the file name and the save throwing an IO exception. Fixed and tested. All other invalid path and file name characters are now protected against.

Updated the automatically created email settings for yahoo accounts to use their IMAP server.

Minor corrections to the translations for some languages.

Updated the credits on the About tab to include names of translators and code contributors.

Hi Dave, would it be possible to do custom sound for incoming mail? Several time I missed it because I was playing AoW and haven't realised it doesn't belong into game.

Thanks Dave! Making it better and better. I think all players here really appreaciate the Wrapper and the effort you are making in improving it!

Yes you can actually. All you need to do is copy the wav file you want into the wrapper install folder and then edit the file named: AowEmailWrapper.exe.config

You should then see this;

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="NotifySound" value="notify.wav" />
<add key="SentSound" value="sent.wav" />
<add key="AutostartPauseSeconds" value="5" />
</appSettings>
</configuration>

Just change notify.wav (as above) to the name of your custom sound, or you could delete notify.wav and rename your custom sound to notify.wav. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I tried it so hopefully it will work.

Hmm, I will have to try another wav as the one I tried doesn't work. If I changed the file name in config file then the wrapper crashed on polling. If I named it notify and moved original notify away it showed the icon of polling even after the saves were already downloaded and no sound played at all.

Sounds like you have mangled the config file. The format of this file is important, if you miss out a quotation mark here or there things will not work.
If you need to reset it to a vanilla state you can copy what is in the above post.
The file also have to be in wav format, as in playable by windows sound recorder.
Edit: Aslo you're not allowed to specify a file path there (as in c:\wavs\mysound.wav), it has to be the file name only and the file must be in the same folder as the wrapper and its config file (so only "mysound.wav" for instance).
