Therte is only the N logical that defines who the non-delivery notification is sent from TCPIP$SMTP5 by default, but most sites define it as "Postmaster".   L Doing what you ask would be against nettiquette when the expectation is thatH the receiving SMTP server has a responsibility to notify the sender if a message is undeliverable.   J However, you can specify error message text to be send to the sending SMTPK server when a message is refused during the receiving SMTP transaction (eg:  spam rejections).   I However, VMS username resolution/verification is done separately once the ? received message has been queued and processed by the symbiont.    ------------------------------    Date: 10 Mar 2004 21:27:30 -0800" From: mikevac@optonline.com (Mike)  Subject: Re: Toys R Us and VMS ?< Message-ID: <e85555fb.0403102127.78773c3@posting.google.com>  [ JF Mezei <jfmezei.spamnot@istop.com> wrote in message news:<404D3721.84409EC4@istop.com>... N > HP is currently airing ads about how Toys R Us is using HP technology to run3 > the inventory control for its Times Square store.  > . > I seem to recall Toys R Us being a VMS user. > N > Does anyone know if Toys R us was in fact a big VMS user ?

Each store in the E US had two VMS systems connected to the registers, each warehouse had C at least one VMS system, and their data centers used VMS and Unisys D systems to manage inventory and distribution.  There were some 2,000C VMS systems installed in the States at that time.  Internationally, B Toys used AS400s and IBM System 38s but I didn't get involved much# with that aspect of their business.   F There was an effort to move away from VMS and on to NT Servers in 1997A but I  believe it was not successful.  They were also using DEC's D version of Unix (OSF) in a few applications.  I doubt that they have moved completely off of VMS.   Mike   ------------------------------   End of INFO-VAX 2004.140 ************************
