I've decoded the format of the VMS 5.0 VMSMail_Profile.Data file.
The format is described below.  

There are two or three holes in my knowledge.  I have no idea
what type 0, 6, or A fields are nor what any field types above
B might be.  Has anyone found out what these are?  The type 7
filed, transport, was described in other message to this group.

Format of Sys$System:VMSMail_Profile.Data

  User_Id			31 characters blank filled

  Type				2 bytes

  Length			2 bytes

  Data				Length and format varies

  The record consists of the 31 character User_Id blank filled
  followed by a repeated series of Type, Length, Data fields.

  Type	Length	Description

  00	?	?

  01 	02	New mail count - binary

  02	02	Flags - bit coded options

		 01  - Set Copy Send
		 02  - Set Copy Reply
		 04  - Set NoAuto_Purge
		 08  - Set Copy Forward
		 10x - Set CC_Prompt

  03	varies	Directory

  04	varies	Forward address

  05	varies	Personal name

  06	?	?

  07	varies	Transport

  08	varies	Editor

  09	varies	Queue
