3128.0. "AR and AF together ?" by SUBURB::BROWNSTONE (Out to lunch) Wed Aug 11 1993 13:56

    Hi,
    
    I see it documented that Auto-reply will not work if an Auto-forward is
    also in effect (V3.0 users reference manual).
    
    Can anyone explain why this restriction has been imposed ?
                                                               
    Ta
    
    Chris

3128.1	it's a bug	FORTY2::ASH	Mail Interchange Group, Reading	`Wed Aug 11 1993 14:44`	9
	Not so much an imposed restriction as a bug! Unfortunately, it's all bound up with the flow during message delivery, and to make it work would require a large amount of code-restructuring. I would hope that the restriction could be removed as part of the development going on at the moment - it's certainly a good feature to be able to set AR and AF. grahame
3128.2	I've been there too...	IOSG::PYE	Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice	`Wed Aug 18 1993 10:36`	5
	I spent about a week hacking through the code during V2.2 development, and I couldn't work out how to make them both work together, so I turned the bug report into a restriction... Graham
3128.3	Or use Personal Assistant?	IOSG::PYE	Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice	`Wed Aug 18 1993 10:37`	3
	Of course you can always use APA to produce AR and AF. Graham
3128.4	Alpha - who said that	SUBURB::BROWNSTONE	Out to lunch	`Wed Aug 18 1993 17:41`	8
	Thanks Gents, APA was my recommendation too, trouble is we can only afford to run it out of hours.... Never mind, roll-on Alpha Chris
3128.5	Been a restiction since at least v2.0	AIMTEC::WICKS_A	U.S.A 2 England 0 - I was there!	`Mon Aug 30 1993 06:33`	7
	maybe i misread the last bit of .4 but I don't think this is going to be in the PFR unless you're expecting the mail code to get much quicker by magic (see discussion of mail strategy in A1INFO) Regards, Andrew.D.Wicks (who also looked at that code once or twice)
