Our world here is all Unix except for the Administration systems which run on VMS (you have to be sure that some things work when you want them to -:). Using the patch eliminates the confusion users might have had with addresses. We have used it over a year now with no problems. We just had a VMS 5.5-1 upgrade, and I applied the patch to the new MAILSHR image. It still works just fine. I can send you a copy of the patch (if you have not already received several dozen). --- Randy Raine | Voice: (604) 291-4447 Computing Services | Fax: (604) 291-4242 Simon Fraser University | Internet: randy@sfu.ca Burnaby, B.C.
