799.0. "PRE/POST function in OA$LIST" by HGOVC::LIKSANGCHOW () Thu Jun 04 1992 03:31

    Is it possible at all to get the following work ?
    
    
    A customer requires that all Emails arriving a particular ALL-IN-1 IOS
    node will have a copy forwarded to a particular account.  This can be
    achieved by modifying all read and read new options within ALL-IN-1.  I
    was thinking of doing it under OA$LIST -- should the mail status of the
    current document be "NOTED" then a copy will be sent to a particular
    account.  However, neither form pre-function nor form post-function
    works.
    
    Any idea if it's possible at all ?  or must I customize each and every
    R and RN options with ALL-IN-1.  (it's 2.4 , by the way).
    
    Cheers,
    Sang (HKEIS)

    How many accounts??
    
    WOuldn't it be easier to set that account up with an AMTS (Alternate
    Mail Transfer Service) option in the MAIDES field of that account in
    PROFIL.DAT.
    
    The "COPY.COM" or whatever that delivers the mail can then also CABINET
    PUT_PENDING the mail or MAIL FORWARD the mail to another acount at the
    same time.
    
    see AMTS described in the manuals, or look for CMU.

    This has also been discussed before, either in this conference or one of
    its ancestors. Maybe someone with a decent directory listing (or a
    memory that works better than mine) can give you a pointer.
    
    The method suggested was as Chris said.
