- MX uses VMS MAIL for delivery of messages, and it's VMS MAIL that produces
- those broadcasts. It sounds to me like you don't have the MAIL$SYSTEM_FLAGS
- logical defined correctly on your boot node. It should be defined as 3 or
- 7. See chapter 9 of the Mail Utility Manual (part of the VMS doc set) for
- further information on MAIL$SYSTEM_FLAGS.
