ComputerCraft EMAIL!

So after the success of my previous post about a telegraph...(Post)
I made a new program, EMAIL! (It took me 3 days)
Anyways, now that technology has "advanced", you can now send messages wirelessly!
(Range for wireless modem is ~64 blocks/384 at max height, ender modems have infinite range!)

Remember to have a modem on the right side of the computer! :P

Here's the pastebin links:
email-client: Szsz2Aee
email-reciever (listener): qb6EQn8X

If you want the receiver program to run automatically in a new tab at startup:
inst: QH8PHxMY (name this startup or put in startup directory)

THIS PROGRAM CANNOT RUN ON NORMAL COMPUTERS AS IT USES MULTISHELL!
(for convenience, and so it runs in background)
Also, channel ID is same as computer ID.

Alternatively, you can use this wiretap program to set ID manually and spy on people:
wiretap: X0WwQvAY
(It also saves the message to file, not opening it automatically, so it's like real email)

If you want a simpler version try this:

It's only my second program, so it's (still) going to be a little messy, but less. :D

Run 'email send' to send emails, 'email test' will send test emails.

I'd love to hear some feedback! Please tell me if something goes wrong with my program, or leave suggestions! :)
