The Question is:
Hi,
Having two questions,
1. How do I know, which version of TCP/IP (UCX) running on my System.
2. We have an Alpha 4100 5/400 running Openvms 7.1-2 with UCX installed. I want
to forward mail from it to internet email.
MAIL> send
To:SMTP%"venkatesh_m@hotmail.com"
CC:
sub: test message from NRC002
But I havenot get any mail from my server,
I found the error in SYS$SPECIFIC:[UCX_SMTP]UCX$SMTP_LOGFILE.LOG, "550

Also Found,
MAIL> 1 UCX_SMTP 5-NOV-2003 Returned mail
but,
MAIL> SHOW ALL
Your mail file directory is SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR].
Your current mail file is SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR]MAIL.MAI.
Your current mail folder is NEWMAIL.
The wastebasket folder name is WASTEBASKET.
Mail file SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR]MAIL.MAI
contains 0 deleted message bytes.
You have 475 new messages.
Your mail is being forwarded to smtp%"VENKATESH_M@hotmail.COM".
You have not set a personal name.
Your editor is TPU.
CC prompting is enabled.
Automatic copies to yourself are disabled.
Automatic deleted message purge is enabled.
Your default print queue is SYS$PRINT.
You have not specified a default print form.
You have not specified a default signature file.
I am sure I have enable SMTP and POP on my system. Is this possible. Pls guide
me how to resolve the issue.
Thanks in advance,

The Answer is :
1: UCX SHOW VERSION
Given the UCX facility name, you are running an old version; a
version prior to V5.0. As of this writing, V5.4 is current.
2: Forwarding of MAIL from the OpenVMS MAIL utility is not directly
related to POP or IMAP. POP and IMAP are protocols that allow
remote mail clients to access a mail server, and would have to
be configured -- as well as passage through any applicable
firewalls -- for remote access to mail stored on an OpenVMS
server.
The OpenVMS MAIL utility simply accepts an arriving message and
forwards it to the specified address -- the obvious question
would be one of direct reachability. Can you send email
directly to the specified email address?
The OpenVMS Wizard would specify the forwarding address as
user@host.domain
and would tend to omit the quotes and the SMTP transport
specification.
3: You will want to discuss with your local network folks exactly
what SMTP relay -- if any -- should be used. You will also
want to discuss whether or not this forwarding is permissible,
as corporations can have policies that restrict or prohibit
such activities.
Please contact the support center directly, as details of the local
IP and SMTP configuration will be required.
