Since you will need to be logged on to the LAN to access the central mailbox files you should insert a call to the chkmail program after the point in your login sequence that this access has been established. Typically it is anticipated that your LAN administrator can modify the standard login script for all users to include this mail check. This means that the chkmail program can reside on the LAN server and be invoked from there. The program should be invoked with a parameter pointing to the location of your sm-misc.cfg file. If you have selected the default installation this will mean the following command >>> chkmail c:\mail The program will sound a note and display a message if mail is waiting. You can then invoke See Mail itself to retrieve the mail. SCRDEF: This program allows you to create or alter the screens used by the See Mail rolodex module. The SCRDEF.HLP file explains more of the details of this. Also see the rolodex section of the user guide. MBXRESET: This program can be used to reset the mailbox file (mail.mbx) if it becomes corrupted and you cannot access it from See Mail. However this program does not re-build any of the data, it merely re-initialises the database. It is recommended that you backup the mail.mbx file, and any associated mail files at least once a day. In the event of a system crash you can then return to a point where the users can then re-send any mail from the that moment on. If mbxreset fails, and you have no back-up then the only way to recove is to delete the mail.mbx file, re-create it, and then get each user to use the See Mail Setup option to blank out their old user-id number, and then re-enter themselves into the mail system. MBXREMOV: This is only required if you need to completely delete a user from the mail system. Normally you can merely re-assign the user-id to someone else by using the mailbox modify user details option to change their name and so on to the new user. XLABEL: This utility allows you to print mailing labels for addresses that you have in your rolodex. If your rolodex files are not in the same directory as the XLABEL program you must enter a parameter when starting the XLABEL program to indicate the location of the rolodex you wish to access.
