I wonder if any one has been able to get around the problem where VMS mail only sends a screenfull at a time? I tried setting /page=0 which crapped out the poor thing altogether. I have an application where I want to send 20-30 page messages to about 20-30 users and I would like to make the whole thing rather idiot proof. I don't want to make the user extract the message into a file name and then type the file although that is what I want to accomplish in fact either by means of a program or com file. If necessary, I would like to know the format of the mail file and I could write something to go in there and get the stuff out by force. I would like to be able to delete messages automatically from verious folders after several days. Has anyone played with this stuff? Should I be using a completely different set of utilities altogether? Thanks much. John Covici
