REA
SUMMARY
Renames a principal in one's contact list.
SYNTAX
REA trid email display-name
- display-name: The desired URLencoded new display name of the principal.
RESPONSE
REA trid ver-num email display-name
DESCRIPTION
The specified principal is renamed. There is a restriction of 387 bytes on the name, after URL-encoding is applied. Renaming oneself is allowed and the only way to set one's own display name.
ERRORS
- 209: Blocked display name
- 216: Principal not in list
- 800: Command issued too rapidly
VERSION
MSNP8, MSNP9
REA (MSNP11)
MSNP11 (and up?): This command was dropped and replaced by PRP.
The REA command is used to change your displayed name to something else.
REA trid your_email newname\r\n
- trid : Transaction ID
- your_email : The email you use to sign on to MSN.
- newname : The name that you now wish to use in a Protocols/MSNP/URL Encoded format.
If the rename has been successful, the server will respond with the following.
REA trid number your_email newname\r\n
- trid : Transaction ID
- number : Purpose currently unknown.
- your_email : The email you use to sign on to MSN.
- newname : The name that you wished to use in plain text.
