! Sample SPORT Routing Control File
!
! In order to have SPORT route your mail intelligently, you will need to
! use the Intelligent Router (SPORTRTE.EXE) and this control file. Both
! files must be located in your SPORT default directory.
!
! This sample control file provides a basic explanation of the commands
! you can use to route mail. Notice that comment lines begin with an
! exclamation mark and will be ignored by SPORT. All valid command lines
! must begin in column one.
!
!
! Different parts of this control file can be activated at different times
! of the day. Normally the Intelligent Router will try to act on each valid
! command in this file if the keyword TIMESLOT is not found. However, if
! the keyword TIMESLOT is located, the Router will only act on lines following
! the TIMESLOT command if the system time is within the START and END hour
! arguments. For example, if you used this statement:
!
!TIMESLOT 06 12
!
! the Router would only process commands following this command if the system
! clock was between the hours of 06:00 and 12:00. It is very important to
! note that this time restriction REMAINS IN EFFECT until a new restriction
! is encountered (a new TIMESLOT command). Should you wish all commands
! to ALWAYS be processed use this:
!
!TIMESLOT 00 24
!
! If you do not use a TIMESLOT command it is possible that your commands
! will not be processed or possibly not processed in the proper sequence.
! To avoid this, we suggest you always use the example TIMESLOT command
! above as the first line in your control file.
!
!TIMESLOT 00 05
!Hold 521010
!TIMESLOT 06 12
!Route 521010
!TIMESLOT 13 24
!Hold 521010
!
!
! The most basic command for the Intelligent Router is the ROUTE command.
! It has several variations:
!
!ROUTE 521010
!ROUTE 521010 TO JOEBLOW
!ROUTE 521010 HOLD
!HOLD 521010 (same meaning as the command above)
!ROUTE 521010 TO JOEBLOW HOLD
!
! First a word of explanation about routing. To ROUTE a Flash Message means
! to move it from your inbound area (where it was received) to your outbound
! area (the SPORT default area) AND do something to it. That "something"
! can be as simple as move it along (ROUTE 521010), put it on hold for
! the calling node to pick up (ROUTE 521010 HOLD), route it through to a
! different node altogether (ROUTE 521010 TO JOEBLOW) or route it through
! to another node but put it on hold to be picked up when that node calls
! (ROUTE 521010 TO JOEBLOW HOLD). The key to how to route the Flash Message
! is contained in how this command line is constructed. Study the examples
! above for the correct line contstruction.
!
! Now that you have routed mail, suppose you want to keep a copy of the
! mail you are passing along. This can be accomplised using the IMPORT
! keyword. Let's assume that we want to route a Flash Message from
! 5210/10 to JOEBLOW but we also want to keep a copy of it in our own
! SFlash Libary. Here is the command sequence:
!
!IMPORT 521010.*
!ROUTE 521010 TO JOEBLOW
!
! Notice that the IMPORT command takes standard DOS arguments. In this
! way you can specify a range of Flash Messages to import (keep copies of)
! as they are routed through your system.
!
! So far, these commands have all operated on inbound mail by putting that
! mail in your outbound area and modifying it as you direct. The Router
! also allows you to manipulate mail waiting to be sent. This gives you
! added flexibility in scheduling mail, especially when used with the
! TIMESLOT keyword. There are two important commands to allow you to
! manage mail waiting to be sent:
!
!MARKHOLD [filename]
!MARKSEND [filename]
!
! Like the IMPORT command above, these two commands take DOS filename
! commands and wildcards. For example, to mark all mail to nodes
! beginning with the character string "MIKE" as hold, do the following:
!
!MARKHOLD MIKE*.*
!
!To mark all mail ready to send, use:
!
!MARKSEND *.*
!
! As you can see, using these two commands in conjunction with the keyword
! TIMESLOT, you can manage which mail is sent during specific times.
!
! Finally, you also have the capability to issue a DOS command directly
! from this control file. To do so, use this keyword:
!
!DOS=[doscommand]
!
! Please notice that there are no spaces between the "DOS" and the commmand
! you wish to execute. The ONLY valid seperator is an equal sign. The
! format of this command must be exact and the DOS command must be a valid
! one for the Intelligent Router to process it.
!
!
! Now... it's time to construct your own control file...
!
!MarkHold *
!MarkSend *
