INTRODUCTION:

	THE SYSTEM MANAGER MAY FIND THESE PROGRAMS AND COMMAND
	STRUCTURES USEFUL.  ALL FILES MAY NEED TO BE EDITTED TO
	REFLECT THE STRUCTURE OF THE SYSTEM WHICH THEY RUN ON.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

MAILUTIL PROGRAMS (USES WHOAMI AND WHEREAMI):

	THIS IS AN UPDATED VERSION OF THE SYSMAIL.EXE AND SYSMAIL.COM
	PROGRAMS.  THE BASIC MAILUTIL PROGRAM IS IDENTACLE TO THE 
	SYSMAIL.EXE PROGRAM IN FUNCTION.  

	THE SYSTEM LEVEL LOGICAL 'NEWMAIL' MUST BE DEFINED FOR THIS
	PROGRAM TO FUNCTION PROPERLY.

		DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXEC NEWMAIL	SYS$SYSTEM:VMSMAIL.DAT

	A COMMAND FILE 'INSTALL.COM' WILL INSTALL THE PROGRAM FOR YOU.
	IT REQUIRES A MINIMUM OF SYSPRV AND CMKRNL TO INSTALL.
	SINCE THE PROGRAM IS INSTALLED AND THE DCLTABLES.EXE FILE UPDATED
	TO INCLUDE THE 'NEWMAIL' COMMAND VERB, ONCE INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE
	THE PROGRAM MAY BE USED.  (AFTER LOGOUT/LOGIN)

	A SECTION OF THE MAILUTIL.PAS ROUTINE MAY BE COMMENTED OUT.
	A FUNCTION CALLED 'JUSTIFY' CHECKS TO INSURE THAT THE USERNAME
	AND ACCOUNT MATCH WITH THE LOGGED IN PROCESS USERNAME AND ACCOUNT.
	IF JUSTIFY IS TRUE, THEN THE EXTENDED FUNCTIONS ARE ALLOWED, IF
	NOT THEN ONLY THE NUMBER OF MAIL MESSAGES IS DISPLAYED.

	THE EXTENDED FUNCTIONS WILL ALLOW USERS IN THE SAME ACCOUNT GROUP
	TO SEE THE SUBJECTS OF THE MAIL MESSAGES OUTSTANDING FOR THE
	GIVEN USER.

	THE PROGRAM NOW ALSO SUPPORTS LOOKING ACROSS THE NETWORK AT USERS
	ON OTHER SYSTEMS.  THIS IS DONE BY DEFINING THE OBJECT '$NWML' AS
	OBJECT NUMBER 0 AND FILE MAILUTIL.COM ON EACH OF THE NODES.  ONCE
	THIS IS DONE, THE PROGRAM EXECUTION IS THE SAME AS BEFORE, EXCEPT
	THE USERNAME GIVEN HAS THE NODE NAME INCLUDED.
