With the menu stuff, you have to enable the SMTP service first and then it need to be started separately. You can do that using the startup command procedure (script):
$ @sys$startup:tcpip$smtp_startup.com

In case you have enabled SMTP (and other TCPIP services) it will start automatically next time you start TCPIP.

If you mean in the long winded menu options, yes. If you mean fettling
about with the start up scripts, no.

              Hi,
              I've asked this one before....
              If I try to send mail out by SMTP% I get a message sayin that
              the queue
              is not started.
              Aside from "start the queue", does anyone have any useful advice?
              VMS 7.3 btw

      Just checking, have you started the SMTP service in TCPIP?
