Danish term or phrase: Hej soede Alena

Also please: "Hej smukke" and "Kempe knus"

I have a Danish friend with whom I correspond in English but he always "drops in" a Danish word (usually when saying hi or bye). Could someone tell me what those 3 expressions mean? I know that "kempe" is most probably misspelled but that is how I got it in the mail. Thanks for any help!!!
