on the end of some lines is required in addition to the normal
line-termination character inserted by the text editor.

More MCI Information

The following is a description of what each token means:
Token Description
---------------------------------------------------------
TO Address field indicator. Include as is.
MCI MCI mail address indicator. Include as is.
Username Name of mail recipient. Replace with person's name. Not used
for mail delivery.
EMS Indicates the name or number in next token is the
recipient's REMS (remote e-mail system) account. Include as
is.
EMSname EMS name or number. Replace with actual EMS name or number.
This can also be an MCI service provided by MCI; consult MCI
Help for more information.
MBX Indicates this is additional information required by the
remote system. Include as is.
MCIMailbox Actual MBX (address) fields for the recipient on the remote
system. Replace with the actual address of the person. If
the remote system is Microsoft Mail, enter the full
Microsoft Mail address. You can only have one complete MBX
address (see the examples above).
Note that there is always a space in front of the EMS: token and another
space in front of each MBX: token. These spaces are required. The
carriage-return symbol at the end of the line is in addition to whatever
code your text editor inserts.
The actual message body requires a header separator after the TEXT: token.
That is, the first line after TEXT: should be a line of 78 dash (-)
characters to separate the header from the message body. Include these 78
characters in the TEXT count.
