We have the WPS-PLUS translate logical OA$MTI_TRNS set to 0 (don't translate) so all outbound mail goes native .WPL-mode. However, we have 1 MR mailbox address that needs to only have ASCII text sent to it, as it chokes big time on .WPL files. Short of writing a Gateway using MRIF (which means it'll never get written!), etc, is there any way in A1 code to intercept such addresses and somehow send a converted copy of the message? Regards, Al

| 2565.1 | Use MCM, or MrGate | IOSG::SHOVE | Dave Shove -- REO2-G/M6 | Wed Apr 14 1993 18:18 | 23 |
Two solutions to this:
1. Use the Mailbus Conversion Manager (I think it's now called) - see
conference TAMDNO::MSG_SOLUTIONS (I'll add a pointer to this note shen
I've finished it). MCM can convert lots of different formats - it
exists as a mailbox on the Mailbus, so you just route your mail through
it to get it converted.
2. ("Cheat's approach") - route via MrGate. MrGate knows how to convert
WPS-PLUS to ASCII. You'll need to go through it twice, to get back to
Mailbus.
So instead of sending to
fred @mbx @node
you'd send to
fred @mx @node @mrgate @mrgate
or some similar syntax!
Dave.
