1550.0. "Digital Office Server and VMS/AXP DCL procedures" by LEMAN::SCHEIDEGGER (Raymond @GEO - DTN 821-5236) Fri Mar 07 1997 07:27

    Hi,
    
    A customer is using DMW on VAX/VMS.
    
    DMW is used only with DCL procedures to send mails to MR
    and MRX.
    
    Example of DCl procedure:  
    
    $a1mail
    sen <file>
    userx
    subject line
    exit
    $
    
    The customer would like to move to an AXP/VMS machine.
    with MAILBUS 400
    
    To be connected to MAILBUS 400 on an AXP/VMS machine the *future*
    Office server will be required.
    
    Q1: Will the Office server on AXp/VMS be able to 'process' 
        DCL procedure ?
    
    Q2: If YES, do we have a time frame of the availability of this product?
    
    Q3: If NO, Any suggested migration path ?
    
    XAPI could be an idea, but it's quit a lot of work just to send a
    file in a 'antomatic/batch' mode.
    
    BTW : Do we have a Digital Officee Server notes conference ?
    
    Thnaks in advance
    Raymond

Hi Raymond,

The Office Server is discussed in the IOSG::ALL-IN-1 conference.

My guess is that the customer would have to change their command procedures to 
use something much more like the ALL-IN-1 script language. If the procedures 
are as simple as the one you show, this should not be difficult.

But that's just a guess!
