- I just set up a mailing-list and have been interested in the recent
- thread on MAILSERV and command access. The recent info on the mapping file
- seemed helpful until I tried to implement it. I'm running PMDF 4.1 on VMS 5.4
- with dead simple non-compiled pmdf.cnf file (Single off campus Multinet
- Channel). Can somebody please point me at the correct documentation, section
- 3.4.1 Locating and Loading the mapping file - says "This file is read once
- during program initialization and loaded into an internal string table."
- Unfortunately this doesn't make sense to me. I have created a mappings file
- which is pointed to by pmdf_mappings_file but the contents do not seem to
- affect the behaviour of my mailserv.
- I do have the mailserv working as far as subscribe, unsubscribe and
- use of the mailing list goes but I am trying to get send/list and subscribe
- for a third party working for sysop types.

- thanks inadvance,
