DESCRIPTION
       The Mail Configuration application, mailconfig, is used by  the	system
       administrator  to  set up the routing and delivery of mail for the sys‐
       tem. The protocols that can be used are: DECnet, DECnet/OSI, MTS, UUCP,
       Internet,  X.25, POP, and IMAP.	The configuration of POP and IMAP ser‐
       vices under mailconfig is transparent to the system administrator.

       Dependencies:  Before using Mail Configuration, be  sure	 to  configure
       the  system using the following applications, which you can access from
       the SysMan Configuration Checklist: Network Configuration BIND Configu‐
       ration  NFS  Configuration UUCP or other network protocols that you use
       to send mail NTP NIS

       The mailconfig application can be invoked from:

       The CDE Application Manager
       Application Group: System_Admin
       Desktop_Apps Subgroup: Configuration
       Configuration Subgroup: Mail

       To start mailconfig from the command line, enter /usr/sbin/mailconfig.

       Online help is available for the mailconfig application.	 To get	 help,
       click on any Help button or use the Help pull-down menu.

NOTES
       The  -focus option is not valid because mail is configured throughout a
       TruCluster Server cluster; hence, all nodes in  the  cluster  have  the
       same mail configuration.

       For a cluster to handle any mail protocol, other than the Internet pro‐
       tocol, all nodes must have that	protocol  installed,  configured,  and
       operating in the same fashion.

RESTRICTIONS
       You must have the appropriate privileges to use this application.
