Keywords: parsing-error with % Message-ID: <713@tuvie> Date: 28 Jun 89 10:50:20 GMT Organization: TU Vienna EDP-Center, Vienna, AUSTRIA Lines: 43 I have the need to send messages to a 'pmdf'-mailer on a VMS-machine via mail11 (DECNET). I'm running ULTRIX V3.0 and V2.2. In both versions I get the same error-message when I specify the following adress: AUNIW::IN%"plank@egh780.una.at" where 'AUNIW' is a DECNET-node and 'IN%'should activate the 'pmdf'-mailer. The same syntax works fine from VMS. Has anybody had this problem? (... error parsing IN ..-see trace below) Exists there any docomentation for 'mail11' or 'mail11v3'? How must I specify the 'USER' for these mailers that they don't parse them? Thanks for help at this problem! Please send Mail to: plank@tuvie.at Thanks, F.Plank *******************************trace starts here***************************** Subject: Cc: auniw::"in%plank@egh780.una.at"...
