- We are running VMS 5.5-2 on a VAX 6610. When a privileged user,
- inside mail, says
-
- Mail>show forwarding/user=*
-
- we get the correct response listing the approximately 30 users who have
- set forwarding. But the execution of the instruction causes bug check
- mail messages from VAXsimPLUS; apparently it has something to do with
- generating stuff coming across the network.
- We reported this as a hardware problem; after dialing in they
- asked us to call it in as a software problem. Software has never seen
- this. The only way they could solve it would be to change a sysgen
- parameter which allows a crash to occur from non-fatal errors; we find
- this to be unacceptable on our busy machine.
- Has anyone had any experience with this?
