Build an X.400 message in IFF format and submit it to X.400.
Syntax
____________________________________________________________
| |
| x4buildiff [-s subject] [-f textfile] [-o originator]|
| [-r recipient] [-t filename] [-c] |
____________________________________________________________
NOTE Use this utility only if you use HP X.400 with HP Desk.
Parameters
-s subject Specify the subject of the IFF message.
-f textfile Specify the text file to send to the recipient of the
message. If this option is not specified, a file is
created sent to the recipient.
-o originator Specify the originator of the IFF message.
-r recipient Specify the recipient of the IFF message.
-t filename Specify the file name where the IFF message is to be
placed. If this option is not specified, a name for
submitting to X.400 is created.
-c Request a delivery report from the receiving X.400
system.
Description
If no options are specified, x4buildiff prompts for the subject,
originator, recipient, and textfile parameters. For the originator
parameter the basic O/R name elements can be selected from the local MTA
configuration or HP X.400/HP Desk Node configuration. For the recipient
parameter the basic O/R name elements can be selected from adjacent MTA
configuration or HP X.400/HP Desk Node configuration.
After all parameters are specified, x4buildiff builds the X.400 message
in an IFF (Interchange File Format) file and submits it to X.400. X.400
transfers the message to the recipient. x4buildiff, if requested by the
user, tracks the message using x4msgtrack.
The X.400 address is specified as follows:
Surn,Foren,Init,Gen/OU1,OU2,OU3,OU4/ORGN/CN/ADMD/PRMD/X121/UA/TermId
Files
/usr/lib/x400/mta.conf
MTA configuration file.
/usr/lib/x400/map.conf
Configuration file that contains error and event log settings.
/usr/lib/x400/neigh.conf
Neighbor table.
/usr/spool/x400/eiq
Input queue for the encoder.
Example
The following example creates a message with the subject Sales figures
and contents from the file sales.123 sent from John Smith to Paul
Claudio.
x4buildiff
-o Smith,John/HPDesk,HP1600/HPIND/US/ADMD/HPUSA
-r Claudio,Paul/Marketing,Networking,OSI/HPGND/FR/ATLAS/HPFR
-s Sales_figures -f sales.123
NOTE x4buildiff does not generate domain defined attributes for O/R
addresses. If a blank ADMD is specified x4buildiff assumes it is a
space.
If a delivery report is requested by an HP Desk originator using
the -c option, warning messages are logged on the HP3000 when the
delivery report returns to the HP X.400/HP Desk Node (HP3000). The
warning message can be ignored. The -c option should be used only
for interoperability testing.
The underscore character (_)
must be used instead of a space when specifying the subject and
X.400 addresses in the command line options.
