Home Appl - COUNTERPoint
(the events variable is located under the System Info... dialog editor or click on the keyboard icon in the Systems Paths... dialog editor).
Events: - COUNTERPoint
When using MacWoof with COUNTERPoint:
CP will automatically launch the MacWoof application. However, you will have to start the mail session by loading a 'Msg Area' and starting a connect to boss session under the MacWoof 'File' menu.
Once MacWoof has successfully connected and transfered and received its mail bundles perform a locate orphan bundles from within CP. Double click on all newly delivered mail bundles and click on process. CP will then launch AME or ZIP Extract, which ever you have listed in STR 836. When AME or ZIP Extract are complete do an Import messages.
Some Front Door systems place all NETMAIL into PKT's which are transmitted first during a mail session. Macwoof will intercept these .pkts before CP can get to them and will import them into Macwoof's NETMAIL area. Therefore, if you are using Woof as the mailer, inbound netmail may be delivered into woof not CP. Most Binkley and TabbyNet systems include the NETMAIL within the arc'ed or zip'ed bundles. This all depends on how your boss has his/her end setup.
