JLUTIL /EX [Parameters] [-Switches]

Switch Description

-S Report to Sysop
-U Msg to Sender, if extracted
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Param Description
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
MsgArea DosName
? Choose it from a menue
~ NetMailArea
FileName of the Text and Control File without Extension
Sender If you want to extract the msgs only of a special sender
Receiver or a special receiver
Subject or with a special subject
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Explanation
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Extract Msgs from a MSG-Area to the File EXTRACT.@JL or a specified
FileName.
eg: JLUTIL /EX ~,JULO,,Juergen Lorenz,
Extracts in the NetMail Area all msgs to Juergen Lorenz into the File
JULO.@JL and the ControlFile is JULO.CTL.
eg: JLUTIL /EX ~,MCS,MAILBOX CONTROL SYSTEM,,JLUTIL USAGE
Extracts in the NetMail Area all msgs from MAILBOX CONTROL SYSTEM
with the Subject JLUTIL USAGE into the File MCS.@JL and the ControlFile
is MCS.CTL.
The switches -S and -U are needing two files. They have the same name
as FileName and the extension .SOP and .USR. You have to put them into
the specified and scanned FileArea. Within these two files you can specify
an include file JL{EXT}.SOP and JL{EXT}.USR.
You can specify a general -S and -U File within the JLUTIL Directory.
The names are EXTRAC_S.MSG and EXTRAC_U.MSG. If you specify certain
files within the scanned FileArea, JLUTIL uses the certain files. If
there are no certain files, JLUTIL uses the EXTRAC_?.MSG files within
JLPATH.
Why should i use this option, you will ask. I will explain it to you.
Sometimes you want to save all messages of a MsgArea. I for myself
want to save my NetMail Areas. So i extract all messages from the
NetMail Areas to a File.
But i have some other tasks. Some messages have a special header,
eg if somebody requests THE JL's on disk. I have setup a batch,
which looks each time after a Netmail run, if there is a new
request. If so, it will be saved and this is important, because
it includes the address of the Sysop and so i get a database of
addresses. And because i want to inform the Sysop, that his request
is in work, i use the -U switch. This forces the MCS to create a
message, that the message of the Sysop has been received and
that the disks will go out in a few days.
On the other hand i want to store all JLUTIL REPORTS and so i
am extracting all messages from MCS to me with the header JLUTIL
Usage.
If you make an aggreement with others, that they will write you
messages in certain cases, which have a special header, you can
backup these messages.
Or you want to backup all messages to a special person. Like with
other options of this fine package you are the boss and you can
setup the program for you own needs.
