Is there any way to restrict a ALL-IN-1 user to read mail only? The user cannot send or file mail. ALL-IN-1 version is V2.4. Thanks, Steven Lau

I suppose you could do this by taking all the other options off of any menu that they could possibly get to. It would be a reasonable amount of work I would think. It would probably be cheaper to give them VMSMail instead :-) Why would you want to do this? Who would empty all the junk out of their file cabinet? Graham | |||||

Um, not sure but I think there should be an easier way - IF, ONLY IFF you want the user to READ MAIL (not manipulate it) Use a SCRIPT SCRIPT to 'JUDGE' the users input, and only allow READ and READ NEW ? (I think this could also allow RFD, I etc) Winton | |||||

I'm confused by one thing: you say 'the user cannot send or file mail'. The Send part I can understand; other inquiries have come in in the past that wish to limit the sending capabilities of their users (mostly to cut down on mail traffic). But I don't understand the 'file' part. Why wouldn't/shouldn't they be allowed to file? Or maybe there's some- thing else implied here? Are you saying that you want them to be able to Read their mail *and then have it "disappear"*?? In other words, that it would never get filed *at all*?? If so, this is clearly not a good idea. Could you clarify that? Which is it: not being able to RFD, XFD, FM, FA, etc.; or simply not ever being able to have anything in their File Cabinet? F |
