| 263.1 | Why was it forbidden? | IOSG::PYE | Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice | Tue Mar 17 1992 16:06 | 9 |
| What were the reasons to disable it in previous versions? the only
reason I know of is the System performance impact.
Since MAIL didn't change much in V3.0, the answer might still be yes,
but...
Yours Curiously,

| 263.2 | wrong mail delivered | LEMAN::REGINA | Carrie's in the carrot land | Tue Mar 17 1992 16:44 | 8 |
| It had something to do with 2 same filenames created and then
mails interchanged (aka delivered to wrong recipient), which
would cause nasty surprises.
Maybe OA$FCV prevents this now. But I'd rather prefer a
confirmation from s.o. in the know, before I enable it again.

| 263.3 | I think it's safe | AIMTEC::WICKS_A | Vote Bill'n'Opus for a weirder USA | Tue Mar 17 1992 16:52 | 13 |
| regina,
I always practice 'safe' mail and I would consider EXPRESS to be much
safer than SECOND CLASS which does some strange things when delivered
to non ALL-IN-1 recipients.
Perhaps you could expand on these rumours you heard so as to prevent
the wrong impression being given to the greater noting public?

| 263.4 | Can't find proof anymore... | LEMAN::REGINA | Carrie's in the carrot land | Thu Mar 19 1992 09:22 | 17 |
| Andrew,
it was not rumours, but it is some time ago. We a recommendation
from MTS to remove the Express option. For the life of me I cannot
find it anymore in the old notesfiles, I don't know where
EURMTS lives these days, if still alive, and I in general delete
mail older than 1 year. So, I have nothing to show you.
It was definitely not my intention to have my favourite product
make a bad/wrong impression! I guess the problem has been solved,
and will enable express mail again on our systems for V3.0.
regards,
Regina
PS: Someone out there *must* remember what I am talking about...

| Hi,
I do not know whether this will help jog memories, but see note
2569 in all-in-1_v24. A customer of mine had a specific problem of
express mail going down a big black hole in v2.3, so this may be what
you are referring to.

| 263.6 | EXPRESS OK here ... | ATLANA::SHERMAN | Debt Free! | Thu Mar 19 1992 14:50 | 18 |
| Hi Regina,
I do vaguely remember what you are talking about with respect to the
EXPRESS mail bit. I don't think the request came from MTS, more likely
from your MTS Cluster Sorter management (EURMTS?), probably due to the
immediate connection to the router from the sender sending via EXPRESS,
and the resultant consumption of available network links.
Like Andrew, I like to practice 'safer' mail; we have been participating
in DIAMOND Field Testing since mid-November and many of our users don't
know any other way but EXPRESS to send their correspondence, and we have
had no problems with them doing it. (Personally, I'm in favor of faking
everyone out by making EXPRESS either a NoOp or equivalent to FIRST_CLASS,
but that's because of the EXPRESS abuse.)
Hth,
Ron
