[HECnet] MULTINET and SMTP mail

[hvlems at zonnet.nl]

You've specified smtp% as a prefix for the internet email address. Mail llooks for sys$share:smtp_mailshr.exe and doesn't find it there. 
- do a dir sys$share:*mailshr.exe and see what files are there. Perhaps you'll find another one (e.g. IP_mailshr.exe)
- if the file is there, then it might not be installed (mc install and use help to run a list of all installed programs)
- the only logical name involved is.             sys$share and if that wouldn't exist then mail problems would be low on your problems list ....

I've tried to configure SMTP on MULTINET and am stuck.

Here's the error:

--- SNIP ---
