- No, it's a system-wide setting. The logical name that controls it is
- MULTINET_SMTP_RETURN_INTERVAL; it's equivalence string should be a VMS
- delta time value. If you wanted to set the value to be one day, for
- example, you would define it as follows:
-
- $ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC MULTINET_SMTP_RETURN_INTERVAL "1 00:00:00.00"
