3495.0. "ALL-IN-1 2.3 Time Management and DL expansion prob." by GIDDAY::SETHI (Holland 2-England 0,Andrew wasn't there) Thu Nov 04 1993 23:41

    Hi All,
    
    A customer has ALL-IN-1 IOS 2.3 (patches installed according to the
    customer are K501-K509 and "K536" ? OpenVMS 5.5-2. 
    
    The customer will be upgrading to 3.0 and at the moment is unable to do so
    due to a lack of time and bodies to do the work.  The following is the 
    customers problem description:
    
    ------
    
    The error occurs when creating an event from Time Management. When
    specifying the attendees for an event, if a distribution list is used that
    contains other distribution lists then not all of the addresses are 
    included when the distribution list is expanded.
    
    Note that the same distribution list works fine under Electronic
    Messaging.
    
    There does not appear to be any pattern as to which addresses are
    included and which are missed. Parts of one 'sub' list will be included 
    while another might be missed entirely.
    
    It is not a problem with a specific distribution list as I have
    recreated the problem with two others.
    
    ------
    
    I have read a number of articles in Stars and looked through the 2.3
    conference.  I cannot find anything that would explain why this is
    happening.  NOTE the DL's is expanded from the EM sub-system BUT not
    from the TM sub-system.
    
    I would be grateful for any help. Thanks,
    
    Sunil

    Sunil,
    
    nested dist lists not working in TM is actually a well known problem
    in v2.* that;s release noted somewhere in the v2.4 release notes
    there's even a note in the old notes file from our DPC on this
    
    It appears to work fine in v3.0 
    
    P.S K536 is one of the series of FCVR patches that shipped - it
    followed K504 if my memory serves me and for some reason the next
    nunber after 536 is 537 and not 566 or something
    
    regards,
