Re: SMTP

"This indicates a possible corruption of the temporary mail file. Issue UCX ANALYZE MAIL."

This bug has been seen before in IP versions of this vintage...

Those are very old UCX and OpenVMS Alpha versions. There have been significant numbers of fixes, upgrades and enhancements since OpenVMS Alpha V7.1 and TCP/IP Services V4.2 were current --- ANALYZE MAIL might well get (should?) you going here, and do check to see if you're current on your ECO for V4.2m but do look at a software upgrade, too.

Re: SMTP

Thx I tried Analyze Masil, but it didn't fix it

Re: SMTP

Apply the ECO kits, then, for OpenVMS and for TCP/IP Services. And then try ANALYZE MAIL again.

If the problem persists, ring up HP support and see if there are ECO kits that have not yet been released.

Failing that, y'all might end up rebuilding the MAIL database to fix this.

Re: SMTP

ECO kits?

Re: SMTP

Applying relevant ECO kits and mandatory ECO kits for the products involved is a typical path for resolving problems. Between the ECO kits from V7.1 and the roll-up that became V7.1-2, moving forward can address many oddities. Much has happened in the decade since V7.1 shipped, after all... The TCP/IP Services product has made substantial improvements in its features and stability since V4.2, for instance.

But if you're on V7.1 and V4.2 and are unable to upgrade to more current versions, there are ECO kits waiting for you.

Here's an OpenVMS ECO kit -- patch kit -- FAQ:

http://64.223.189.234/node/348

Pointers to kit distribution site, etc., are included in the FAQ.

I'd tend to zip the Excel files (or MIME-encode them), too, as they're not the most compatible with OpenVMS tools and utilities.

If you really need fast help here, I can be in Pembroke in a little over an hour. :-)
