Either of two e-mail methods may be used: 1. Your ".txt", ".jpg", and optional ".zip" files may accompany your e-mail message as MIME attachments. Most Internet e-mail programs which support attachments use MIME. If you use attachments, you may attach one, two, or all three files to any given e-mail message. NOTE: do not insert your ".txt" file into the body of your message. It *must* be attached in the same way your image and zipfile are attached. 2. Your ".txt", ".jpg", and optional ".zip" files may be uuencoded and inserted into the body of separate e-mail messages. Only the first uuencoded file in the body of a message is used, so each uuencoded file must be in a different message. The multiple messages which make up a submission (at least two, one for the ".txt" file and one for the ".jpg", and optionally a third for the ".zip" file) must be sent close together in time--they all must arrive within an hour of each other or they will look like an incomplete submission and be rejected. This isn't usually a problem, but try to avoid sending some files before lunch and the other ones afterward! NOTE: do not insert your ".txt" file into the body of any of these messages as plain text. If you use the uuencoding method of submission, the ".txt" file must also be uuencoded. Either of these two submission techniques may be used, but they may not be combined, at least in the same message. If you attach something to a message and also insert a uuencoded file into the body, the uuencoded file will be ignored. All other submission rules apply to e-mail submissions. They are treated exactly the same as ftp submissions, except for the way they get to the competition site. The e-mail address for competition submissions is "irtc-submit@povray.org". More information about the IRTC may be found on the competition web site at "http://www.povray.org/irtc/" or via ftp from "ftp.povray.org:/pub/irtc". -- The IRTC Admin Team
