VMS Help  —  PMDF  SEND  Qualifiers

1    /ABORT

    By default, if an error occurs while processing an input message
    file or recipient address, PMDF SEND will ask the user whether
    or not to send the message anyhow. If the /ABORT qualifier is
    specified, then PMDF SEND will merely exit (with an error) when a
    problem occurs during file or address processing.

    The /ABORT and /IGNORE qualifiers are mutually exclusive - only
    one or the other can be used.

2    /BCC

    Positional parameter which can be used to specify that the given
    recipient address, and subsequent recipient addresses, should be
    treated as Bcc: addresses. By default, recipient addresses are
    interpreted as To: addresses.

3    /CC

    Positional parameter which can be used to specify that the given
    recipient address, and subsequent recipient addresses, should
    be treated as Cc: addresses. By default, recipient addresses are
    interpreted as To: addresses.

4    /COMMENTS

       /COMMENTS=comments

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Comments: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
    existing Comments: header line is used; if none exists no
    Comments: header line will appear in the outgoing message unless
    the PMDF_COMMENTS logical is defined.

5    /DELIVERY_RECEIPT_TO

       /DELIVERY_RECEIPT_TO=address

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Delivery-receipt-to: header line. If this qualifier is not used,
    any existing Delivery-receipt-to: header line is used; if none
    exists, no Delivery-receipt-to: header line will appear in the
    outgoing message.

6    /ENCODING

       /ENCODING=encoding

    Specify the encoding method to use to encode an input message
    file. Normally, no encoding is used; however, this depends upon
    the file type as determined by the file extension. The available
    encoding methods are BASE32, BASE64, CBASE64 (compressed base64),
    BASE85, BINHEX, BTOA HEXADECIMAL, PATHWORKS, QUOTED_PRINTABLE,
    UUENCODE, and CUUENCODE (compressed UUENCODE). No encoding can be
    specified for a file containing header information (/HEADERS).

7    /ERRORS_TO

       /ERRORS_TO=address

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the Errors-
    to: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any existing
    Errors-to: header line is used; if none exists no Errors-to:
    header line will appear in the outgoing message unless the PMDF_
    ERRORS_TO logical is defined.

8    /EXPAND_LIMIT

       /EXPAND_LIMIT=limit

    If, during the process of expanding the message's recipient
    addresses, the count of recipients exceeds the specified limit
    then the address expansion will be deferred. PMDF SEND will
    expand the addresses "off-line" so that the user need not wait.

9    /EXTRA

       /EXTRA=header_line

    Additional header lines can be specified with the /EXTRA
    qualifier. Specify the entire text of the header line; e.g.,
    /EXTRA="X-Sign: Aquarius". Multiple header lines should be
    specified using the format /EXTRA=(hdr1,hdr2,...).

10    /FAX

    When the /FAX qualifier is specified, the pop-up FAX addressing
    form is invoked. The message being sent will be sent to the
    addresses specified via pop-up form as well as any additional
    addresses specified with the recipient address parameter.

11    /FILENAME

       /FILENAME=name
       /NOFILENAME (default)

    This positional qualifier, when specified, causes the name of
    the input file to be included as a parameter to the associated
    MIME Content-type: header line. You can specify the name to be
    included in the header line, or if you do not specify a name, by
    default the name of the input file will be used.

12    /FROM

       /FROM=address

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the From:
    header line. If this qualifier is not used, any existing From:
    header line is used; if none exists and the PMDF_FROM logical is
    not defined, then a From: header line will be constructed from
    the username of the user invoking SEND and from the local host
    name. Note that even if a From: address is provided your address
    will appear in a Sender: header line.

13    /HEADERS

       /HEADERS
       /NOHEADERS (default)

    The input message is assumed to have no header attached to it
    by default. The /HEADERS qualifier tells SEND that a header is
    already attached to the message; it is modified and used to form
    the header for the message that is actually sent.

14    /IGNORE

    By default, if an error occurs while processing an input message
    file or recipient address, PMDF SEND will ask the user whether
    or not to send the message anyhow. If the /IGNORE qualifier is
    specified, then PMDF SEND will not ask the user whether or not to
    send the message - it will send the good input files to the good
    recipient addresses.

    The /ABORT and /IGNORE qualifiers are mutually exclusive - only
    one or the other can be used.

15    /IMPORTANCE

       /IMPORTANCE=importance

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Importance: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
    existing Importance: header line is used; if none exists no
    Importance: header line will appear in the outgoing message
    unless the PMDF_IMPORTANCE logical is defined.

16    /KEYWORDS

       /KEYWORDS=keywords

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Keywords: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
    existing Keywords: header line is used; if none exists no
    Keywords: header line will appear in the outgoing message unless
    the PMDF_KEYWORDS logical is defined.

17    /LOG

       /LOG=log-list

    Specify what sort of informational message PMDF SEND should
    issue. The log-list is a list of zero or more of the following:
    NONE, ADDRESSES, FILES, MESSAGES, IDS, or ALL. NONE indicates no
    logging, is equivalent to /NOLOG, and is the default. ADDRESSES
    causes one informational message to be output for each specified
    recipient address. FILES causes one information message to be
    output for each input file. MESSAGES produces a summary message
    that indicates how many addresses and files were processed
    successfully. IDS produces an informational message showing the
    contents of the Message-Id: header of the resulting message.
    ALL activates all forms of logging; it cannot be specified
    simultaneously with NONE. /LOG=MESSAGES is the default if /LOG
    is specified without an explicit log-list.

18    /MODE

       /MODE=mode

    Specify the file access mode to use when reading an input message
    file. By default, input files are read in text mode. The access
    modes are TEXT, RECORD, CRATTRIBUTE, LFATTRIBUTE, CRLFATTRIBUTE,
    and BLOCK. A file containing header information must be accessed
    using TEXT mode.

19    /MULTIPART

    This qualifier may be used to tell PMDF SEND to always format the
    messages it sends as multipart MIME messages.

20    /ORGANIZATION

       /ORGANIZATION=organization

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Organization: header line. This qualifier is ignored if an
    Organization: header line is already present. If this qualifier
    is not specified or negated no Organization: header line is added
    unless the PMDF_ORGANIZATION logical is defined.

21    /PRIORITY

       /PRIORITY=priority

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Priority: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
    existing Priority: header line is used; if none exists no
    Priority: header line will appear in the outgoing message.

22    /READ_RECEIPT_TO

       /READ_RECEIPT_TO=address

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the Read-
    receipt-to: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
    existing Read-receipt-to: header line is used; if none exists, no
    Read-receipt-to: header line will appear in the outgoing message.

23    /REFERENCES

       /REFERENCES=references

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    References: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
    existing References: header line is used; if none exists no
    References: header line will appear in the outgoing message
    unless the PMDF_REFERENCES logical is defined.

24    /REPLY_TO

       /REPLY_TO=address

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the Reply-
    to: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any existing
    Reply-to: header line is used; if none exists no Reply-to: header
    line will appear in the outgoing message unless the PMDF_REPLY_TO
    logical is defined.

25    /RETURN_ADDRESS

       /RETURN_ADDRESS=address

    Specify the address to be used as the envelope originator
    address. If the message is returned as undeliverable by the mail
    system transport the nondelivery notice is normally sent to this
    address.

26    /RFROM

       /RFROM=address

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the Resent-
    From: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any existing
    Resent-From: header line is used; if no such header line exists
    no Resent-From: header line will be attached to the outgoing
    message.

27    /RREPLY_TO

       /RREPLY_TO=address

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Resent-Reply-to: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
    existing Resent-Reply-to: header line is used; if no such header
    line exists no Resent-Reply-to: header line will be attached to
    the outgoing message.

28    /SENSITIVITY

       /SENSITIVITY=sensitivity

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Sensitivity: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
    existing Sensitivity: header line is used; if none exists no
    Sensitivity: header line will appear in the outgoing message
    unless the PMDF_SENSITIVITY logical is defined.

29    /SUBADDRESS

       /SUBADDRESS=subaddress

    Specify a subaddress to attach to the envelope From: address;
    e.g., if the envelope From: address is rex@example.com then
    specifying /SUBADDRESS="Postmaster" would result in the envelope
    From: address rex+Postmaster@example.com.

30    /SUBJECT

       /SUBJECT=subject

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Subject: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any existing
    Subject: header line is used; if none exists no Subject: header
    line will appear in the outgoing message.

31    /TO

    Positional parameter which can be used to specify that a given
    recipient address should be treated as a To: address, which is
    the default interpretation.

32    /USER

       /USER=username

    Specify the local username to use in the message sender's
    address; (this will be the From: address if no other From:
    address is given and the Sender: address otherwise). You must
    either have WORLD privilege or hold the PMDF_WORLD or PMDF_WORLD_
    username rightslist identifier in order to use this qualifier
    and specify a username other than your own. The special case of a
    blank string will not insert any Sender: information.

33    /WARNINGS_TO

       /WARNINGS_TO=address

    This qualifier can be used to specify the contents of the
    Warnings-to: header line. If this qualifier is not used, any
