2463.0. "Sending mail to subscribers -RMS-E-FNF, MAIL-LIST.COM" by BUSHIE::SETHI (Man from Downunder) Wed Mar 24 1993 05:42

    G'day Up there and every where,
    
    A customer has ALL-IN-1 installed and has a problem sending mail to
    SUBSCRIBERS:, an error message is displayed:

    ![SYMBOL] Symbol: OA$MERGE_LINE = "<&INCLUDE oa$curdoc_filename>",
    Value: <&INCL
    
    !               UDE oa$curdoc_filename>

    ![IO]     Deleting file C.TXT
    
    The full trace/debug can be found on RIPPER::USER$TSC:[SETHI]Q32035.LOG;1.
    One thing to note is that invoking ALL-IN-1 with /nocustom the customer
    still get's the problem. The customer has upgraded to 3.0 from 2.4.
    
    The customer assures me that he had solved all conflicts and has done
    thing by the book, it's hard to believe maybe pigs really do fly ;-}.
    Any ideas on this one would be appriciated.

2463.1Even I know this one!AIMTEC::WICKS_AOscar the Grouch is an Optimist!Wed Mar 24 1993 08:3124
    Sunil,
    
    Oh **** STARS just died on me but I know there's articles on this.
    
    MAIL-LIST is the 'pretend' Mail Destination field for Distribution
    Lists and is defined as such for some top-secret I can't remember right
    at the moment hack to the Sender/Fetcher code. There isn't such a file
    as MAIl-LIST.COM
    
    I can't recall how it affect the SUBSCRIBERS: case - unless on this
    system SUBSCRIBERS: isn't the real special address that God or at
    least the mail developer intended but two things you can do are:
    
    1) loop through the profile looking for a user with a MAIDES field
       of MAIL-LIST and when you locate then take them out and have them
       shot (:==:)
    2) check the system distribution lists (these are profile entries)
       and make sure that none of them think they are real users
       (i don't think you can have distribution list shot - shredding may
        be an alternative though)
    
    regards,

        Check to make sure there isn't a SUBSCRIBERS: system distribution
        list created on this system.

2463.3The user created a SUBSCRIBERS: dl BUSHIE::SETHIMan from DownunderThu Mar 25 1993 03:2920
    Hi Andrew and Dave,
    
    The problem was caused by the user creating a SUBSCRIBERS: distribution
    list in the ALL-IN-1 managers account.  What gave the show away was I
    asked the system mangler :-), to login as a unprivileged user and
    trying sending to SUBSCRIBERS: and it worked.
    
    >Even I know this one!
    
    Who's a clever boyo :-).  Tom Jones is visting Australia currently and
    so I am doing my Welsh impressions currently ;-} !!!!  I miss the Welsh
    accent.
    
    >**** STARS just died on me but I know there's articles on this.
    
    Looked in stars couldn't find it unless I missed it that's possible.
    
    Thanks for all your help,
    
    Sunil
