Let’s try sending the AIBO

Entertainment Robot an e-mail with commands to take a picture or leave a message.
The AIBO robot will take pictures, play back delivered messages, leave messages, and announce new e-mail according to your
e-mail commands.
E-mail that contains commands for the AIBO robot to follow (e.g. take pictures or messages) is called an AIBO MAIL.
Writing AIBO MAIL
AIBO MAIL must be written according to specific rules:
• All characters must be alphanumeric. The AIBO MAIL is not case sensitive.
• Use plain text (no encoding, no HTML) when composing AIBO MAIL.
• A single AIBO MAIL must be less than 10 KB (10,000 characters in total, including the header).
Checking for e-mail
• With the AIBO EYES feature, the AIBO robot can check up to 200 messages on the e-mail server. Please manage your
e-mail on the server, so that the number of messages does not exceed 200.
• The AIBO robot will not perform AIBO MAIL commands if that e-mail has already been opened and deleted from the
server) via a PC or mobile communication device.*

The AIBO robot will periodically check the e-mail server. When AIBO MAIL is received at the
designated e-mail address the AIBO robot checks, it will execute the commands contained within.
Always enter “AIBO MAIL” as the subject text. (Insert one space between “AIBO” and “MAIL”. Do not
include a space after “AIBO MAIL”.)
A single AIBO MAIL can contain up to 10 commands. When entering multiple commands, insert a
carriage return between each command.
Details for each command are described on page 46.
The AIBO robot will process AIBO MAIL correctly, even if there is trailing text, such as a signature, at
the end of the AIBO MAIL.
