Callable VMS MAIL - Where's the Documentation?

Over a period of time I have seen postings that mention the callable interface for VMS MAIL. Can anyone tell me where the documentation is? I promise, I've looked - we have the VMS documentation set for 5.0, with updates through 5.4xx. I fail to find any reference to callable MAIL in the master index, the MAIL manual, or any of the programming manuals (system routines, system services, run-time library). Am I selectively blind, or is this stuff artfully hidden away? Any pointers would be appreciated. **************************************************************************** * Yosef (Jody) Branse University of Haifa Library * * Mt.

It's in "VMS Utility Routines Manual" (Programming Vol 3), Chapter 9.

Look in volume 3 of the Progamming set, "System Routines", AA-LA67B-TE. It's in the "Utililty Routines" manual. I know it's in the manual that came with VMS 5.4, and maybe even the VMS 5.2 manual. ============================================================================= Bob Marshall \\ "It ain't age Lockheed Missiles & Space Co. \\ That makes me look this way Sunnyvale, CA \\ It ain't the years, boys, marshall@force.ssd.lmsc.lockheed.com\\ It's the miles" "I tell the truth 'cept when I lie" \\ - Chris LeDoux =============================================================================

I just opened up Bookreader, and found them in chapter 9 of the "VMS Utility Routines Manual." This is the same manual that includes the ACl, CLI, DCX, CONV etc routines. The title page of the Bookreader copy implies that it is the V5.4 version of the manual. --Doug -- Doug Gordon gordon@edwin.enet.dec.com InfoServer Software Engineering Anything resembling an opinion Digital Equipment Corporation is mine and not DECs.
