104.0. "MRMEMO interworking with wave 1" by MUDIS3::RROSENBERGER (Rainer Rosenberger @MFR, PZ-SOGY) Mon Sep 30 1991 19:17

    Hello,
    
    in FORTY2::MAILBUS_UPDATE #6.6 it's stated that the new Version of MRX 
    (V2.2 now in FT) requires MR V3.2 and the recently released DECnet 
    extensions. All the .1 releases don't work with the DECnet extensions.
    
    What about the interworking of MRMEMO V2.1 with MR 3.2 and DECnet
    extension.

104.1Needs testingSTKOFF::SPERSSONPas de problemeTue Oct 01 1991 12:4220
    
    Rainer,
    
    After reading the referred note it's obvious that this need to be
    tested. The note in question does not mention the version compatibility
    of MRIF. Do you know anything about that? I think MRIF and the
    unofficial DDS API are the main possible gotchas here. Is there an
    official statement on the APIs?
    
    I can foresee a pain in the neck if I tried to install all these
    MR/MRX/DECnet versions in our local environment. If you want a fast
    answer, the best thing would be if someone could find an environment
    somewhere (on the Easynet) where they are already installed. It should
    be fairly easy to install MRMEMO in this environment and at least get a
    quick indication of whether we can expect MRMEMO to work under DECnet
    extensions or not.  
    
    Fair enough?

104.2Should interworkMUDIS3::RROSENBERGERRainer Rosenberger @MFR, PZ-SOGYTue Oct 08 1991 16:1912
    Hello Stefan,
    
    I guess that you are right. MRIF V3.1 applications should run without
    any changes with MR V3.2. I've tested MRMEMO with MAILBUS *.2 FT 1. But
    thie first baselevel of MRX did not require DECnet-extension. MRMEMO
    does not talk to MRX directly so there shouldn't be any problems. MRX
    requires the DECnet-Extension only because it's based on the new OSI
    tower (new versions of PSI, VOTS and OSAK).  
    
    Regards,
    
    Rainer

That there is a bug in the SDC kit of MR V3.2 (or rather in the MRIF library).

Non-receipt notifications are refused by the TS.
See the MAILBUS V3.2 FT notesfile.

104.4Should not affect MRMEMOSTKOFF::SPERSSONPas de problemeWed Nov 06 1991 19:169
    
    Hi Marc,
    
    Thanks for the warning. Fortunately MRMEMO does not generate
    non-receipt notifications, only receipt-, delivery- and non-delivery.
    
    cheers,
