I have found the file /usr/lib/dnet_shared/Mail11v3.fatal, which contains
messages and these messages should cause mail11v3 to tell to sendmail
that this was a fatal error.

I would like to include the error message you gets when you try to
activate object 27 (mail) on a DECnet-VAX node, where the object can't
login, that is login information invalid at remote node. 

Can this be done ? I have the fealing that it can't, because that error
is returned by the dnet_conn routine and not by the remote mail object.
Is that correct ?

The reason why we would like to do it is that many system managers has
removed the default DECNET account without changing the definitions of
the objects. And in order not to retry this for 3 days the mail should be
returned immediately.

cheers
