2655.0. "How to store default print queue info under DECwindows mail (if at all possible)" by PEACHS::MITCHAM (Andy in Alpharetta (near Atlanta)) Wed Apr 25 1990 09:59

I'm writing this here for lack of a better conference that I've found that
works, that is.  BCSE::DW-MAIL doesn't appear to be working at the moment.

Is there a way of storing a default print queue under DECwindows mail?  It
appears that, even after storing mail attributes, the print queue information
is not retained.

If this has been discussed elsewhere, a pointer would be welcome.

thanx,

-Andy

To answer my own question (BCSE::DW-MAIL became available) it appears this is
not possible.

Sure wish they'd "fix" this...

Couldn't you simply (re)define the DECW$PRINTER_FORMAT_TEXT (or _PS) logical?
