307.0. "HOW TO MAKE THE DOCUMENT UNFORWARDABLE" by JSOCSS::UNO (Digital Night Lullaby) Tue Mar 24 1992 08:07

Hello--This is N. Uno, DEC-Japan.

I have a question about "making the ALL-IN-1 document unforwardable."

One day a user received an ALL-IN-1 mail message.  When she select it and 
invoked SH,  its status was "forwardable=no."

I thought that the option which made the document unforwardable at the 
receivers' accounts was available at WPSPLUS editor.  But in ALL-IN-1/WPSPLUS
manual, such option was not described.  

Is it possible in an easy way?

307.1You can easily set it, but...IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeTue Mar 24 1992 09:0811
    There isn't a standard option to set this field. But you can use CAB
    functions to set it. Something like:
    
    	CABINET CHANGE_ATTRIBUTE OA$CURDOC,'FORWARDABLE',OA$YES,OA$NO
    
    I'm not sure that it is much help setting it, because it is not always
    used.
    
    There was discussion about this in the previous version of this file.

307.2It does work, nowIOSG::SHOVEDave Shove -- REO-D/3CTue Mar 24 1992 14:2112

    Actually, I think it's reasonably good now - it certainly prevents
    Auto-Forward (which it used not to), and straightforward use of the F
    option. (And Attach, I think).
    
    What it doesn't prevent (it can't, really) is methods like Gold-Get
    into a new message. But then, the user could always re-type the message
    anyway!

307.3MAIL is friendlier than CABINETAIMTEC::WICKS_AVote Bill'n'Opus for a weirder USATue Mar 24 1992 16:237
    Um I believe my elders and betters (.1 and .2) forgot about the
    MAIL NON_FORWARDABLE function which is much more friendly to use
    than CABINET CHANGE_ATTRIBUTE etc ..
