How does one define a foreign protocol for VMS MAIL? All I have been
able to glean from poking around in the manuals and around my JNET/EXOS equipped
Vax is the following:
Mail will pass a file to a foreign protocol handler (e.g. EXOS or JNET) if
the mail is sent to protocol%"ADDRESS".
Protocol has an associated logical with it MAIL$PROTOCOL_protocol. If you
have a JNET system, you will probably notice a logical called
MAIL$PROTOCOL_JNET, similar items exist for EXOS.
Where can I learn more ? There are no references to foreign protocols in
the Mail Utility Reference or the Master Index.
