Issues with MAIL crashing - SMTP


When setting up smtp from an alpha to an internal mail system I rcv the following crash on mail during the send.

The MX is defined correctly as is BIND but what I find interesting is the fact that if I send to any address other than ...@test.com the crash does not occur but the mail is not sent and is returned.

VMS and UCX version at the bottom

MAIL> send
To: smtp%"user@test.com"
%SYSTEM-F-ACCVIO, access violation, reason mask=00, virtual address=3002EF0A0A0C

Re: Issues with MAIL crashing - SMTP

I've read that there were many mail bugs in 4.1. Is that really 4.1 unpatched ?

JA,

assuming you're trying to set up SMTP mail on this system for the first time (i.e. it has never worked before), consider to obtain and install the most recent patch UCX V4.1 ECO 10 (UCXALP_E10041):
