Requirements for Sending Stickums

To send or receive a stickum over a network requires the following:
1. The computer that Stickums is running on must be connected to a TCP/IP based network;
2. Networking under the MS Windows "Control Panel" must be properly configured;
3. A valid non-zero port must be assigned under the Stickums program Options (Networking tab -> Listening Port). If the port given is 0 or is invalid, then the Stickums program will not be able to receive stickums over the network. Although stickums may still be sent;
4. The IP Address or the DNS name (aka Host Name) of the recipient computer must be known;
5. The recipent computer must also be running Stickums.

When a stickum is sent, the recipient receives a replica of that stickum. All stickum attributes remain the same (size, font, text, etc.) with the following exceptions which are not sent:
1. Alarm settings;
2. Password settings;
3. Background pictures.

Working with the Send Stickum Dialog Window

The Send stickum window is shown in Figure 5. Type in the recipient computer's IP Address or Host Name in the "To:" text box. Previous entries (up to 10) can be accessed by the drop down arrow on the text box. Separate multiple addresses with commas. Choosing "* View Send Book *" will bring up the Stickums "Send Book" window where aliases may be created for frequently used addresses.

After the recipient computer's address information is entered in the "To:" text box, click "Send." A progress bar will pop-up. Press "Cancel" to halt the send command. If the message was sent successfully, the "Status" bar will read "Message sent." Press "Cancel" to exit.

If the computer you are sending a stickum to is listening to a different port than the default, you will have to specify a port. In this case follow the IP address or host name with an "@port". For example, if you are sending a stickum to the localhost at port 451, then the address would be localhost@451.
