I have made a few changes to the FORWARD mail package:
- LSV$FORW is called immediately upon completion of a /FORWARD SET command.
This causes files to be immediately stolen from the target's reader, so that
users don't give you a phone call reporting a bug in the mail forwarder
which doesn't work at all.
- Whenever LSV822IN reports a parsing error, the mailfile is not returned to
the user's reader but forwarded under a new cover, with a log of the
LSV822IN messages and a blurb asking the guy to please try to find the cause
of the problem and fix it. A copy is sent to the postmaster.
>>> IMPORTANT <<<
1. For some reason, it appears that I must have inadvertently issued a GET
command on the wrong file and there is a '--- Mail file in error ---' line
at the bottom of LSV$FORW EXEC. This does not cause any problem since
control never reaches that point. I realized it only after sending out the
new version. To avoid being flooded with mail, I have re-sent a version
with these lines deleted, so don't worry if you get two copies.
2. This has not yet been fully tested. I don't see what problems could arise,
except maybe in the case of invalid mailfiles which were not processed
before anyway, but just be warned that this has not been fully tested.
