This sample shows how you can use Inter-Process Messaging (IPM) to send store and forward messages between applications running on the same machine or on different machines. In addition, you may send messages to a queue on a server.
To use, first click the "Make New Message" button and enter a short text message, followed by return.
Next, click the "Make New Destination" button, and select the desired destination. You may select from the following destinations: appletalk address (presumably another machine running this application), a server queue, a user's preferred message queue or preferred mail slot.
Next, select the message and the destination, and click the "Send" button. After a short while, the message you sent will appear in the messages pane of the destination computer running the MessageBoard sample, if you had selected the appletalk address of another machine running this application as your destination. They should also be able to send messages to you, and you can also send messages to yourself.
Compilation Environment:
