- This sounds as though you have not properly defined MAIL$SYSTEM_FLAGS In a
- cluster, you usually want it defined to be the value "7". A value of "1" says
- the node is part of a homogeneous cluster. "2" directs mail to broadcast the
- receipt message to any logged in terminal for the person (i.e. Mail uses the
- $brkthru system service). A value of "4" tells mail to include the tie of
- receipt in the broadcast message. You may combine these values by adding them
- together. It should be an exec mode logical in the system name table. Look in
- chapter 9 of the Mail Utility manual for an explanation
