Example 16-1 and Example 16-2 configure configures a PMDF-MR gateway at EXAMPLE.COM on node NAPLES, and Example 16-3 shows the corresponding checklist file. This is the same sample site pictured in Figure 4-1 and configured by Example 4-1. Example 16-4 shows an example of building the DCF utility.
EXAMPLE's Message Router network consists of the two cluster nodes, MILAN and NAPLES, running a cluster-common Message Router configuration, as well as the remote Message Router node, named NOPMDF. MAILbus components in use include:
| Message Router Node | MAILbus Component | Mailbox Name |
|---|---|---|
| NAPLES | ALL-IN-1 | A1 |
| NOPMDF | MAILworks | AM |
| NAPLES | MR/X.400 | MRX |
| NOPMDF | MR/PROFS | MRP |
All four Message Router components will be given a unique domain name so that they can all be reached without explicit routing in the addresses. In addition, EXAMPLE has installed and configured PMDF-FAX and PMDF-X400 and chooses to provide specific Message Router mailboxes for each of these PMDF layered products.
EXAMPLE.COM also has another node, nomr.example.com, which does not have Message Router, but on which they would like to run ALL-IN-1 and MAILworks; to do this, they will use the Message Router Transport Service replacement capability of PMDF-MR. Assuming that PMDF-MTA and PMDF-MR have been installed on nomr.example.com, and that PMDF-MTA has been configured on nomr.example.com, then Example 16-5 shows a sample dialogue for configuring PMDF-MR on nomr.example.com, while Example 16-6 shows a corresponding checklist file.
PMDF-MR is configured using the PMDF CONFIGURE MR utility.
The procedure will prompt for information specific to your installation
of PMDF, PMDF-MR, and Message Router. Whenever appropriate, each prompt
supplies a default answer which is enclosed within square brackets.
Simply pressing return, [RETURN], selects the default answer.
Remember that the values in these samples are for purposes of example only. Be sure to use the values appropriate for your system when you perform the actual configuration.
Note that the procedure produces several output files that reflect your PMDF-MR configuration. You have the option of choosing different file names for these output files. The default names, however, are the names that are required for a running PMDF-MR configuration. Supply alternate names if you want to examine the results of different inputs without affecting your running PMDF-MR.

$ SET DEFAULT PMDF_TABLE:
$ PMDF CONFIGURE MR
PMDF-MR Configuration Utility, Version 6.2
This utility creates an initial pair of databases for mapping PMDF
RFC 822-style addresses to Message Router X.400-style addresses
and back again. Use this utility to assign RFC 822-style domain
names to your Message Router user agents and gateways so that they
can interoperate with all of your other PMDF channels.
At various stages of this procedure you will need to supply
RFC 822-style domain names. Be sure that the names you choose
are within a domain or subdomain over which you have administrative
authority, and are not currently being used for anything else.
Important note: No changes are made to existing PMDF-MR database
information until all questions have been answered. This utility
can be aborted at any prompt by entering a CTRL/Z. The files
output by this utility can optionally be redirected to a different
location so they will have no impact on the existing PMDF-MR
databases.
You have a history file from a previous run of the configure utility.
Do you want to use answers from the previous run as defaults [N]? [RETURN]
Do you wish to continue [Y]? [RETURN]
Do you wish to have a detailed explanation printed before each question [N]? y
In addition to acting as a gateway to Message Router, PMDF-MR
has the ability to act as a replacement for Message Router
for any agent that is built using the MRIF API interface. Agents
using this interface include:
ALL-IN-1 Integrated Office System V3.0 or later/Office Server [A1]
MAILworks Server for OpenVMS (aka ALL-IN-1 Mail) [AM]
Properly implemented Message Router gateways from non-HP
vendors can be supported as well.
This capability is especially useful on AXP systems, where native
Message Router support is not available.
This phase of this procedure will generate the necessary channel
definitions and option files. This is equivalent to defining
mailboxes using the MRMAN utility.
If you need Message Router emulation facilities you should enter
YES, otherwise enter NO.
Do you wish to set up any Message Router replacement mailboxes [N]? n
A standard domain-style host name is used to refer to the PMDF-MR gateway
from the Internet/822 side. Message Router addresses then appear
relative to this gateway on the Internet/822 side. For example, if
you choose a domain name like MR.EXAMPLE.COM for the gateway,
an address of the form USER%A1@MR.EXAMPLE.COM might be used
from the Internet/822 side to send messages to local ALL-IN-1
users. The choice of the MR.domain format is a common one.
Be sure that the name you choose is within a domain or subdomain
that you have administrative authority over.
In any case, be sure to choose a name that is NOT currently in use.
Domain name of the PMDF-MR gateway []? mr.example.com
A Message Router mailbox is used by the PMDF-MR to receive messages
from Message Router. This mailbox will appear as routing information
in Internet/822 addresses on the Message Router side of the gateway.
For example, if the mailbox chosen is PMDF (the default), the
Internet address DOE@NAPLES.EXAMPLE.COM would appear to MRGATE as
MRGATE::PMDF::"DOE@NAPLES.EXAMPLE.COM"
and to ALL-IN-1 Electronic Messaging as
DOE@NAPLES.EXAMPLE.COM@PMDF
Message Router mailbox name for the gateway [PMDF]? PMDF
Enter the password associated with this gateway's Message Router
mailbox. Message Router protects each mailbox with a password.
These passwords should not be public information since they
are the primary means of controlling access to Message Router
mailboxes.
Password for PMDF's Message Router mailbox []? secret
PMDF-MR supports many different Message Router User Agents and
Gateways in the MAILbus product family, including (but not
limited to):
ALL-IN-1 Integrated Office System or Office Server [A1]
MAILworks Server for OpenVMS (aka ALL-IN-1 Mail) [AM]
Message Router X.400 Gateway (aka MRX) [MRX]
Message Router/SNADS Gateway (aka MR/S) [MRS]
Message Router/PROFS Gateway (aka MR/P) [MRP]
VMS MAIL Gateway (aka MRGATE) [MRGATE]
Properly implemented Message Router gateways from non-HP
vendors are supported as well, including (but not limited to):
MBLINK Message Router to cc:Mail Gateway [CCGATE]
SoftSwitch Message Router Gateway [SSW]
AlisaMail Message Router Gateway [MRAM]
[Type RETURN for more]: [RETURN]
NOTE: In the above product lists, common or default Message Router
mailbox names for each product are provided at the far
right, within the square-brackets. Note that products
installed at particular sites might very well use different
mailbox names. You will need to be familiar with your own
Message Router configuration in order to configure PMDF-MR
support for these and other User Agents and Gateways.
Some Message Router gateways, including MRX, MR/S, MR/P, require
specific support from PMDF-MR. This procedure will explicitly
prompt for MRX, MR/S, and MR/P support in a later phase.
This phase of this procedure will generate support for those
Message Router gateways and user agents that require only ROUTE
and USERID fields within Message Router addresses. Those products
which are known to fall into this category include A1, AM, MRGATE,
CCGATE, SSW, and MRAM.
If you need to access any such Message Router user agents or gateways
from PMDF-MR you should enter YES, otherwise enter NO.
Do you wish to assign domain names to Message Router mailboxes [Y]? y
Enter a domain name to be associated with a particular Message Router
User Agent or Gateway mailbox. Each Message Router User Agent or Gateway
mailbox needs to have its own unique domain name so that PMDF-MR
can recognize it on incoming mail. If there are no more User Agent
or Gateway mailboxes then just hit RETURN.
Domain name for one MR mailbox [RETURN if no more]? a1.example.com
Enter the Message Router mailbox name for the User Agent or Gateway
that corresponds to the previous domain name.
If the MR mailbox is on a different node it can be entered in the
form MAILBOX@NODENAME.
Path corresponding to previous domain name in MAILBOX@NODE format []? A1
Domain name for one MR mailbox [RETURN if no more]? am.example.com
Path corresponding to previous domain name in MAILBOX@NODE format []? AM@NOPMDF
Domain name for one MR mailbox [RETURN if no more]? [RETURN]
PMDF-MR is capable of handling MRX addresses specially. In particular,
MRX addresses require that attributes be encoded into the actual route
rather than being present as ordinary attributes. If you have any
MRX gateways you want to access from PMDF-MR you should say YES,
otherwise enter NO.
Do you have one or more MRX gateways you wish to access [N]? y
Enter a domain name to be associated with a given MRX mailbox.
Each MRX mailbox needs to have its own unique domain name so PMDF-MR
can recognize it on incoming mail. If there are no more MRX mailboxes
just hit RETURN.
Domain name for one MRX gateway [RETURN if no more]? mrx.example.com
Enter the MRX mailbox that corresponds to the previous domain name.
If the MRX mailbox is on a different node it can be entered in the
form MAILBOX@NODENAME.
Path corresponding to previous domain name in MAILBOX@NODE format []? MRX
Domain name for one MRX gateway [RETURN if no more]? [RETURN]
PMDF-MR is capable of handling MR/S addresses specially. In
particular, MR/S addresses require that attributes that must be
encoded into the route; they are not part of the regular attribute
set. If you have any MR/S gateways you want to access from PMDF-MR
you should say YES, otherwise enter NO.
Do you have one or more systems behind MR/S gateways you wish to access [N]? n
PMDF-MR is capable of handling MR/P addresses specially. In
particular, MR/P addresses require that attributes that must be
encoded into the route; they are not part of the regular attribute
set. If you have any MR/P gateways you want to access from PMDF-MR
you should say YES, otherwise enter NO.
Do you have one or more systems behind MR/P gateways you wish to access [N]? y
Enter a domain name to be associated with a given MR/P gateway.
Each MR/P gateway needs to have its own unique domain name so PMDF-MR
can recognize it on incoming mail. More than one PROFS system can be
associated with any single gateway. If there are no more MR/P
mailboxes just hit RETURN.
Domain name to associate with an MR/P gateway [RETURN if no more]?
profs.example.com
Enter the Message Router mailbox mailbox that corresponds to the
previous MR/P gateway domain name. If the MR/P mailbox is on a
different node it can be entered in the form MAILBOX@NODENAME.
Path to the MR/P gateway associated with this domain in MAILBOX@NODE format []? MRP@NOPMDF
Enter the name of the PROFS system that should be used as a default
if no other name is specified in an address.
Name of the default PROFS system []? bigblue
Domain name to associate with an MR/P gateway [RETURN if no more]? [RETURN]
The FAX domain name is the domain name PMDF-FAX uses for sending
plain text e-mail to FAX. Normally this is the domain name defined
for this purpose when FAX_CONFIGURE.COM is run. Making this domain
name known to PMDF-MR makes it possible to use more convenient and
conventional address formats to send to PMDF-FAX. For example, when
PMDF-MR is made aware of this domain name, a FAX address in ALL-IN-1
MAIL might look like this:
*fn\15085551212@*o\Example@*at\John Doe@FAX
This address actually conforms rather closely to the conventions for
X.400 addresses in ALL-IN-1 MAIL. But without the special conversion
rules an address like this would be required:
"/FN=15085551212/O=Example/AT=John Doe/"@text-fax.local-domain@PMDF
There is nothing wrong with this address; however, it is overly complex
and it is not in a format natural to ALL-IN-1 MAIL.
This domain name is optional; if you just hit RETURN no special
handling for FAX addresses will be set up. Do not define this
domain name for use in conjunction with anything other than PMDF-FAX;
the processing done is quite specific to PMDF-FAX.
Domain name for PMDF-FAX plain text []? text-fax.example.com
A special Message Router mailbox is used to receive messages destined
for PMDF-FAX. PMDF-MR recognizes this mailbox and handles it
specially, rewriting addresses referencing it into a format acceptable
to PMDF-FAX. In effect, this mailbox is associated automatically with
the domain name previously established for PMDF-FAX.
The default mailbox name is FAX. Press RETURN and this name will be
used automatically. A different name can be used if desired.
PMDF-FAX mailbox to be made known to Message Router [FAX]? FAX
The X400 domain name is the domain name PMDF-X400 uses for sending
X.400 messages. Normally this is the domain name defined for this
purpose when X400_CONFIGURE.COM is run. Making this domain name
known to PMDF-MR makes it possible to use more convenient and
conventional address formats to send to PMDF-X400.
This domain name is optional; if you just hit RETURN no special
handling for X.400 addresses will be set up. Do not define this
domain name for use in conjunction with anything other than
PMDF-X400; the processing done is quite specific to PMDF-X400.
Domain name for PMDF-X400 []? x400.example.com
A special Message Router mailbox is used to receive messages destined
for PMDF-X400. PMDF-MR recognizes this mailbox and handles it
specially, rewriting addresses referencing it into a format acceptable
to PMDF-X400. In effect, this mailbox is associated automatically with
the domain name previously established for PMDF-X400.
The default mailbox name is X400. Press RETURN and this name will be
used automatically. A different name can be used if desired.
PMDF-X400 mailbox to be made known to Message Router [X400]? X400
The printer channel domain name is the official host name associated
with the printer channel defined in the PMDF configuration file.
Making this domain name known to PMDF-MR makes it possible to use
more convenient and conventional address formats to send to the
printer channel.
This domain name is optional; if you just hit RETURN no special
handling for printer channel addresses will be set up. Do not define
this domain name for use in conjunction with anything other than
a PMDF printer channel; the processing done is quite specific to
the PMDF printer channel.
Domain name associated with the PMDF printer channel []? [RETURN]
One or more Message Router mailboxes can be explicitly specified
in an 822-style source route or percent hack. The gateway will
convert such routes into one or more Message Router routing mailboxes
automatically. However, the case where no routing information is
specified must also be accommodated. A Message Router mailbox must
be specified for use in this case. Press RETURN to use the default of
MRGATE, which is the mailbox used by the Message Router VMS MAIL
gateway.
Message Router mailbox used by default [MRGATE]? [RETURN]
Message Router establishes a mailbox name for the local system. This
is used to generate address routes that are valid from remote systems.
This name is usually the DECnet node name of your machine. Please
enter this name; this gateway uses it to generate addresses that
will be valid on remote machines.
If you are using a remote Message Router, i.e. this system is not
running Message Router, then the answer should be the name of the
remote Message Router's mailbox.
System's Message Router mailbox [NAPLES]? NAPLES
Message Router routing information often includes local DECnet
node names, cluster aliases, and other routing material which
is simply stripped from addresses by local Message Router route
processing. The MRMAN utility's SHOW * command can be used to find
such routing entries; they have the general form:
NULLNAME, Replace=
(I.e. there is nothing to the right of the equals sign.) In most
applications this sort of material should also be stripped
from addresses during the address translation process. Enter any
such routing entries you want stripped from addresses, one at a time.
A blank entry terminates the list.
If you are using a remote Message Router, then enter the information
from the SHOW * command on that system.
Local node name or other null routes [RETURN if no more]? MILAN
Local node name or other null routes [RETURN if no more]? [RETURN]
Message Router free form names (FFNs) are often used to store the full
name of each user. In the RFC822 world personal name fields serve
a similar function. Enter YES to have free form names converted to
personal names. Entering NO blocks this conversion. (Note that both
free form names and personal names are only included for legibility;
they have no effect on the function of the address.)
Convert Message Router Free Form Names to RFC822 personal names [Y]? [RETURN]
Message Router telephone numbers (TNs) are often used to store user
phone numbers. In the RFC822 world personal name fields are often
used in this way. Enter YES to have telephone numbers converted to
personal names. Entering NO blocks this conversion. (Note that both
telephone numbers and personal names are only included for legibility;
they have no effect on the function of the address.)
Convert Message Router phone numbers to RFC822 personal names [Y]? [RETURN]
Message Router free form names (FFNs) are often used to store the full
name of each user. In the RFC822 world personal name fields serve
a similar function. Enter YES to have 822 personal names converted
into Message Router free form names automatically. Note that this
might improve the display of PMDF-MR messages in ALL-IN-1, which in
some contexts only displays the free form name and not the rest of the
address.
Convert 822 personal names into Message Router Free Form Names [Y]? [RETURN]
Message Router free form names (FFNs) are often used to store the full
name of each user. In the RFC822 world personal name fields normally
serve a similar function. However, due to the problems some mailers
have handling personal names, RFC822 comments are sometimes used for
personal name information. This convention unfortunately conflicts
with other uses for comments, notably as a means of transferring
per-address attribute information. Enter YES to have RFC822 comment
strings converted to free form names automatically. This will only
be done after any configured attempts to convert personal name
information have been tried and failed.
Convert 822 comments into Message Router Free Form Names [N]? [RETURN]
Message Router organization names (Os) are often used to store the
name of the organization the address is from. In the RFC822 world
the nonstandard Organization: header performs a similar function for
message From: addresses. Enter YES to have the organization specified
in the From: address converted into an Organization: header. Entering
NO blocks this conversion. (Note that this header is only included
because it is convenient for users; it has no other effects.)
Retain organization specification in From: address as Organization: header [Y]? y
The PMDF address of the local PostMaster is used when blank addresses
(which are allowed in RFC822 but not in X.400) are encountered that
must be converted into Message Router addresses. Please enter a full
domain address for the local PostMaster. Do not use shortform host
names since there is no guarantee that the address will be interpreted
in the context where the shortform name is valid.
RFC822 address of local PostMaster []? system@example.com
On VAX, this gateway can flatten WPS-PLUS and DX messages into ASCII
using a special utility. This utility is built from libraries provided as
part of various Message Router product sets, notably the Message Router
VMS Mail Gateway (MRGATE). If you intend to link this Document Conversion
Facility (DCF) utility to convert messages in these special formats to
ASCII, answer YES. If you answer NO, WPS-PLUS and DX message bodyparts
will not be converted.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The above described DCF facility is available ONLY
on the VAX architecture. For Alpha AXP systems running
PMDF-MR, you must answer NO to this question. In that
case (or if you prefer on VAX) the following will apply:
If not converted to ASCII, WPS-PLUS and DX message bodyparts will be
extracted and labelled appropriately for MIME. You can then use a PMDF
CONVERSION channel together with document conversion software such
as CDA Library or KeyPAK to perform more comprehensive conversion than
flattening to ASCII text.
Flatten WPS-PLUS and DX messages to ASCII automatically [N]? y

| Example 16-3 Example Checklist File for PMDF-MR Configuration |
|---|
$ TYPE mr.checklist
Checklist for setting up your PMDF-MR gateway.
Written by SYSTEM, 1-NOV-2002 15:23
This file was created by the PMDF-MR configuration generator V6.2.
(1) Add the gateway mailbox or mailboxes to your Message Router
configuration:
$ RUN SYS$SYSTEM:MRMAN
MRM> add "PMDF"/owner=SYSTEM/suppress/ignore/service/password=secret
MRM> add "FAX"/replace="FAX@PMDF"
MRM> add "X400"/replace="X400@PMDF"
If you are using the PMDF Process Symbiont for immediate notifications,
then also do
MRM> modify "PMDF"/notify=PMDF_MR_NOTIFY
If you are not using the PMDF Process Symbiont, you should be.
Be sure to read the chapter on setting up the Process Symbiont.
If you are configuring PMDF-MR to connect via DECnet to a remote
Message Router (that is, PMDF-MR and Message Router are not running
on the same node or cluster) then also do
MRM> modify "PMDF"/NOOWNER
Also define the logical name PMDF_MR_NOTIFY on the remote node
running Message Router like this:
$DEFINE/SYSTEM PMDF_MR_NOTIFY "node::""TASK=PMDF_MR_NTFY"""
where node is the DECNET node name of the system running PMDF
(2) Build the DCF utility by executing the procedures:
$ @PMDF_COM:DCF_EXTRACT.COM
$ @PMDF_COM:DCF_BUILD.COM
Refer to the PMDF-MR chapter in PMDF System Manager Manual
for more details on building the DCF facility.
(3) Add the contents of the MR.RULES file to the existing set of
rewrite rules in your PMDF configuration file by adding the line
<PMDF_ROOT:[TABLE]MR.RULES
to the rewrite rules section of your PMDF.CNF file; it should be
be added before any general TCP/IP rewrite rules (e.g., .COM,
.EDU, etc. normally included as <PMDF_TABLE:INTERNET.RULES).
It should start in column one with no surrounding blank lines
added by you.
Note: if you find the lines
!
! Rewrite rules for PMDF-MR
!
!<PMDF_TABLE:MR.RULES
around the middle of your PMDF.CNF file, merely
uncomment the line "!<PMDF_TABLE:MR.RULES" and, if
necessary, change the file name so that it reads
!
! Rewrite rules for PMDF-MR
!
<PMDF_ROOT:[TABLE]MR.RULES
(4) Include the channel definition in your configuration file
by adding the line
<PMDF_ROOT:[TABLE]MR.CHANS
to the very end of your PMDF_TABLE:PMDF.CNF file; it should
start in column one and be preceded by a single blank line.
Note: if you find the lines
!
! PMDF-MR channels
!
!<PMDF_TABLE:MR.CHANS
towards the end of your PMDF.CNF file, merely
uncomment the "!<PMDF_TABLE:MR.CHANS" line and, if
necessary, change the file name so that it reads
!
! PMDF-MR channels
!
<PMDF_ROOT:[TABLE]MR.CHANS
If your Message Router is not running on this node, then
edit PMDF_TABLE:MR.CHANS and add the continuation character \
at the end of the line starting with mr_local, and add the line
DAEMON nameofnode
as the next line. Use the name of the node running Message Router
where nameofnode is shown.
(5) If you are running a domain name system (DNS) nameserver, you
will need to insert MX or A record(s) for the gateway into your
database, the MX record(s) should point to your PMDF system.
If you are using host tables, make sure to add host
aliases for the gateway.
The names to be added are:
mr.example.com
a1.example.com
am.example.com
(6) If you have not set up PMDF Process Symbiont queues already
you need to set them up following the instructions in the
Process Symbiont chapter of the PMDF System Mananger's Guide.
If you already have PMDF Process Symbiont queues, then
stop all PMDF processing queues using a command of the form:
$ stop/queue/reset QUEUE-NAME
where QUEUE-NAME is the name of any one of the PMDF Process
Symbiont queues. The STOP/QUEUE/RESET will stop them all.
You then need to start each of the PMDF processing queues using
a START/QUEUE command for each one. Restarting these queues
ensures that the PMDF Process Symbiont uses the new configuration
information so that it properly handles Message Router
notifications.
(7) For proper handling of attachments, you should consider
enabling mappings such as those demonstrated in the sample file
PMDF_TABLE:MR_MAPPINGS.SAMPLE. To enable these mappings, you might
start by cutting and pasting the contents of the sample file into
the PMDF_TABLE:MAPPINGS. file. Modify the mapping entries, if
necessary, to correspond to the Message Router label tags in
actual use at your site.
That's all!
