Conference iosg::all-in-1_v30

    Hi Tony!
    
    	Great news! Thanks for letting us know. Small nit:
    
>-- Automatic escalation of mail validation thru PAB, server
>subscriber list (DEC MAILworks or ALL-IN-1 PROFIL) to DDS
    
    	Actually we'll be picking up NETWORK.DAT, nicknames and groups
    	in the final version, but this baselevel has a bug and only
    	picks up PROFIL.
    
    Regards,
    Paul
    
    PS	I have stopped reading this conference for a while due to
    	schedule pressures but someone pointed me to it.

    Tony,
    
    might we also tell people how to get a baselevel of said product now
    that the customers have seen it???
    
     I believe that in addition to what you listed the product also requires
    an unnanounced ALL-IN-1 patch kit - correct?
        
    Regards,
    
    Andrew.D.wicks (who doesn't have a baselevel)
                               

    Andy,
    
    At the moment you need four Central Engineering developers om site to
    install it. And you have to buy them several beers and get us to work
    all day Sunday to make it work!
    
    And then to keep it working, you have to stop the people demonstrating
    it from changing the connection type to Async....
    
    Other than that it's simple :-)
    
    Rest assured that as soon as it's suitable for wider distribution, it
    will be made available internally.

    PS As long as you don't mention any football results!

    Andy,
    
    Stop being so picky.  GAP and I felt that it was good judgement to
    inform the field about software that was being demo'd at DECUS. 
    Otherwise we put our people at a positive disadvantage.  I don't like
    doing this.  
    
    Field test baselevels that don't require lots of engineers to install
    and maintain (although I must say that the software behaved itself
    *most* of the time that I was using it -- fear, or something, coming
    into play) will be available later on this summer.  Further discussion
    on this topic (apart from the great reaction at DECUS) should be
    conducted in the ABBOTT::A1INFO conference.
    
    Tony

    GAP,
    
    Thanks for the positive response! sorry to have missed you.
    I don't have 4 engineering developers to hand (and isn't AVB a
    manager?) but i'm going to try to install it anyway. 
                  
    Tony,
                                               
    nice to see you back in the notesfile... 
                         
    regards,
    
    Andrew.D.Wicks 

    The count of four engineers included an extremely valuable member of
    the TeamLinks development team, who was unfortunately too busy writing
    the product to be able to stay all week!
    
    AVB didn't arrive until later on Sunday.

    GAP,
    
    oh ok - oh by the way I now have it running about 30 miles north of
    where you installed it.

    	I'd just like to clarify, in my own head, the current situation
    with regard to Teamlinks and the ALL-IN-1 IOS mailserver.
    
    1)	With Teamlinks V2.0, the IOS mail server becomes fully operational.
    What I mean is with the exception of the Teamroute functionality, I
    will be able to use the ALL-IN-1 IOS as my PC mail server and can forget
    about the DECmailworks product, if I so choose. From my PC I will be
    able to fully utilise the remote IOS file cabinet, and be able to use
    all mail functions (reply, forward, etc.)
    
    2)	The TL X2.0 is in the early stages of field test and not
    particularly robust? 
    
    3)	The A1_ECO001030 patch kit should be installed before attempting to
    install TL X2.0?
    
    		I realize that many of these questions may seem trivial to
    some but there is such a HUGE amount of information relating to these
    products that sometimes the very basic questions are forgotten.
    
    		Cheers

    Steve,
    
    1) yes - it does almost everything you can do from a VT.
    
    2) no I wouldn't say it was unstable. remember TL v2.0 includes more
       bits than just the IOS connection. The DECMAILworks piece is pretty
       solid. The IOS bit is still under development but all should be well
       for a stable EFT kit in the next few weeks. If you have a customer
       then register for the kit now and demo it when the EFT kit is
       announced.
                                                            
    3) yes and No - you also have to install an unnannounced and not
       discussed here yet patch that i'll call the MUP (hope that's ok with
       the other moderators) Such a patch will also go to EFT with TL v2.0
       and the IOS connection soon.

Although i don't think that you will be able to do the Set Mail User
command with v2.0!
