3924.0. "ALL-IN-1 behaviours....." by MLNTSC::ZAGHI () Mon Feb 28 1994 10:46

Hi,

My customer is working with ALL-IN-1 V3.0 (ITALIAN)
He wants to know if the following behaviours are normal........

THE FIRST.... 
---------

there are two ALL-IN-1 user :  USER_A  & USER_B

1) USER_B grants mail access to USER_A by GMA function 

2) USER_A switches to USER_B "mail context" by SMU function 

3) USER_A selects a USER_B's "created document" in MAIN DRAWER . At this point
   "created document" is located in [.msg] directory.

4) USER_A moves selected "created document" to his own CREATED FOLDER (and 
   of course MAIN DRAWER) At this point "created document" is located in
   [.DOCX]  directory. 

5) From his "mail context" USER_A sends "created document" to another user....
   but this step fails.
   I think the problem is that now "created document" is in [.DOCX] directory.


THE SECOND....
----------

there are two ALL-IN-1 user :  USER_A  & USER_B 

1) USER_B create & send a message that we'll call XXXXXX

2) USER_B grants mail access to USER_A by GMA function

3) USER_A switches to USER_B "mail context" by SMU function

4) USER_A selects XXXXXX document in " MAIN drawer/INDEX OUTBOX folder"

5) USER_A copy XXXXXX document in his own "MAIN drawer/INDEX OUTBOX folder".
   But now the document appears as UNSEND and is located in [.docx] directory.  
               NO GOOD FOR THE CUSTOMER.



Can anyone tell me anything more about the above behaviours ? 

            Many thanks in advance ....

                        Paolo Zaghi.

3924.1One guess, one answerIOSG::MARSHALLWhen you've got a widget, you don't need gimmicksMon Feb 28 1994 12:0520
The first problem has nothing to do with the [.DOCx] directories.  I tested it
and it works on ALL-IN-1 V3.1 EFT1.  So either:
a) It's a problem speciic to the Italian kit (unlikely)
b) There's something weird with the customer's setup
or
c) It's been fixed in the PFR


The second problem isn't a problem at all; that's the way it works.  When you
copy a SENT document (you don't need to be SMU'ed, it's the same if you're in
your own account) the copy is given status UNSENT.  This is because the copy
hasn't been sent to anyone, it's merely a copy of a message that has been sent.

It is given STATUS of UNSENT because the most likely thing you'll want to do
with a copy of a message you've sent is to make some changes and send it again.

If you copy a READ message, it will be given STATUS of COPIED, which prevents
you changing or sending it - the same as with the original READ message.

    	Interestingly, copying a READ message in MAILworks results in
    	another READ message. We've had complaints that TeamLinks is
    	inconsistent because it works one way with a MAILworks document
    	and the other way with an ALL-IN-1 document. Of course, if
    	TeamLinks made all copied READ messages into READ messages, we'd
    	get complaints from ALL-IN-1 customers complaining that the VT
    	interface was inconsistent with the Windows interface! :-)

Hi,
first of all , excuse me for the late.
I'd like to do some other considerations ....

Does this problem exist in ALL-IN-1 V3.0 English ? in the other words....
Is it possible that this is a ALL-IN-1 V3.0 problem ? ( I can find this problem
on my ALL-IN-1 V3.0 italian too )

Yes but is it normal that we can find the COPIED SENT DOCUMENT in [docx] 
directory ??

                  Many thanks ,
                                  Paolo.             


3924.4As normal as it gets round here...IOSG::MARSHALLA glitch in realityFri Mar 04 1994 17:4111

Sorry, don't have time to find a V3.0 system and check; all the systems I have
access to are running V3.1 EFT versions.

Yes.
