BBEdit probably can. If you StuffIt it, you'll be surprised at how
small the type of file becomes. If the archive is less than 1MB, feel
free to send it to me.
When all is said and done, I find it unlikely that AutoShare was the
cause of it, but I would like to make sure.

I was getting many of these Autoshare crashes when the file in the Filed
Mail folder was too big, or recently, when it was invalid. Maybe EIMS beta
is creating an invalid file?

Hmmm. I still can't figure out. I keep all my Mac servers (including
EIMS) in top shape. The server in question is fully scanned weekly
with both Norton Disk Doctor 4.0.1 and Apple Disk First Aid
8.5.1....and just did it again for good measure (no probs found). I
am unable to test things with all extensions off as neither EIMS or
AutoShare will run with all extensions off...however I am running
with a stripped down 8.5.1 (junk like apple menu options removed) and
did try to run the vacation notice with my third party extensions
removed (Timbuktu Pro 4.8 and AutoBoot 1.6.1)...and got the same
result:
" The application 'AutoShare' has unexpectedly quit because an error
of type 10 occurred"
After this happens, I go look inside hd/Auto/File Mail and there is
in fact a file there named something like "b2cee36c" When I open that
file with a text editor...it proves to be test mail I sent to the
user. I then go to hd/Auto/Filter/[account name] and when I open up
the user's filter file, my address is added below the five asterisks.
Everything looks as I imagine it should look...it's just that
AutoShare keeps crashing with a type 10...and it will keep crashing
on re-launch as long as the filed mail ("b2cee36c", for example) is
in the Filed Mail folder. As soon as I remove the "b2cee36c" (or
whatever the name happens to be at the time) from the Filed Mail
folder, I am able to re-launch AutoShare. In fact, not only am I able
to re-launch it, but I receive a bounce message from the user I had
sent the test message to....only the test message is BLANK. And if I
send another test message, bang...AutoShare again crashes with a type
10 error.
One thing that may be noteworthy:
I am running this EIMS server in a sub-domain (mag.wired.com) to
wired.com. All incoming mail from the outside world first passes
through an authoritative (for wired.com) mail server which then
auto-forwards the incoming mail (on a per user basis) to
corresponding EIMS accounts on the mag.wired.com domain. Mail from
the outside cannot be sent directly to accounts on the mag.wired.com
domain...but rather must pass through the main server (for no
technical...but rather very political reasons). So far so good. One
thing I noticed on the blank bounce I did get has a return address of
"user@mag.wired.com" which is not good.. dot as the return address needs
to be "user@wired dot com".
I would really like to get AutoShare working for vacation messages at
is it's extremely embarrassing the way EIMS keeps chunking out
repeated "I'm not here" vacation messages to mail lists the
vacationing user happens to belong to. It's embarrassing to the point
where abandoning the use of EIMS would be the only option vacation
messages can't be limited to one per sendee's address and/or filtered
out entirely from mail originating from lists.
Could perhaps the fact that I'm running EIMS/AutoShare on a
sub-domain have anything to do with getting type 10's??? Are there
any other products (commercial, shareware, or freeware) which work
with EIMS and will handle limiting vacation mail??

I guess it's possible, but probably not. Those things almost always
stem from a system, which has a, sometimes very hidden, flaw of some
sort. Granted, that makes it difficult to track down (e.g. extensions
off or compare with tests on another computer), but there's rarely
any way around it. It could of course stem from the application
itself (directly in the code or indirectly as a compiler bug), but
when only one user experiences a specific problem in a specific
situation, it's highly unlikely that it's the application. If two on
the other hand experiences _exactly_ the same thing, well that's
different.

A type 10 error is equivalent to a No FPU (floating-point unit)
Installed error, which occurs when an application expects to find an
FPU which isn't there. The PowerPC chip, used by PowerMacs such as
your 7200/90, has floating point support built in. So unless there's
something screwy with the 7200/90 per se, it's my guess that it's
some sort of a, most likely memory-related, conflict stemming from
some third-party extension or the like of it.
Let me be more specific here than I was last time. First have your
system running with extensions on and EIMS running, but with
AutoShare shut down. Wait until there's a message file in the Filed
Mail folder. Then reboot with extensions off and start up AutoShare
as the only application running. Let me know if the type 10 error
then happens. Do _not_ make _any_ shortcuts doing this.

Subject: AutoShare 3.0.4b3
The 3.0.4b3 archive has been uploaded to
<ftp://ftp.dnai.com/users/m/meh/AutoShare/Beta/>
It was reported by James and confirmed by me that subject-specific
mail-backs for auto-responses in b2 were broken when the mail-back
keyword is configured for the body. This appears to be working fine
in b3.
When mail-backs are enabled for auto-responses, it used to be
configured by placing the /=mailback token in the Default document
for the auto-response folder in question. The 3.0.4 betas have
extended that into a subject-specific behaviour by picking up the
/=mailback token of subject-specific documents. This brings up the
story of the overburdened subject field, because when a confirmation
is returned from the user, the original subject is no longer in the
subject field and therefore cannot be used to find the proper
document containing the /=mailback token. The solution is that the
original subject is picked up from the quoted original RFC header,
which is only possible if your document includes the /=original or
/=header token. So keep that in mind!
As for the type 10 errors reported by Michael Wise, he has kindly
sent me several stdlogs, which so far confirm that AutoShare is not
at fault and that the source of the problem is most likely an
extension. I am waiting to hear the result of Michael running
AutoShare (PPC as well as 68K) with all extensions off (the shift key
down when rebooting).
If you're running a 3.0.4 beta, be sure to run b3 as this is the only
one that I can possibly comment on. I'll give it a little while, but
am likely to release 3.0.4 soon due to the bug in 3.0.3.

Yep, that's was I meant. In the server application, right?
In the Admin, go to Extras -> Resources, type 204 in the ID field, 1
in the Index field and click the Get button. If the String field
shows 3 numbers separated by spaces and the last number is zero, you
have a problem; if the last number has many digits, you're fine.
Repeat with an Index field value of 2.
Shut down AutoShare and restart it. Then shut it down again and look
at the end of the log file in the AutoShare preferences folder to see
how many hours until logs and digests get mailed. Then restart
AutoShare.

Well, you can also go into the Admin, go to Extras -> Resources, type
204 in the ID field, 1 in the Index field, leave the String field
blank and click the Set button. Repeat with an Index field value of
2. Shut down AutoShare and start it up again.
Or shut down AutoShare, delete STR# 204 in the preferences file and
start up AutoShare again.
Once you're done, select your desired log and digest times.

List-Software: AutoShare 3.0.4 by Mikael Hansen
[text of the reply message]
The subject line of this message is blank, and the "From" address is
pecoleman at mail.dc.lbl dot gov. This is, for my purposes, suboptimal. Here's
what I'd like to see:
On the "From" information, the "Reply to" address of this user, which is
PEColeman at lbl dot gov, not the actual mail account.
On the subject line, "Re: Test two".
In the body of the message, only [text of the reply message.]
In other words, I need to change the From: line, change the Subject line,
and suppress all the information that AutoShare inserted about
Mime-Version, X-Sender, To, From, Date, Precedence, Subject, Date, and
List-Software in the body of the message.
Is this possible? If so, how would I go about doing it?

It generally means that the domain of the SMTP envelope recipient
address (see e.g. the To address in [] brackets in the status window)
is different from the domain in the bounce address and any additional
domain in the hosts file. Or that the recipient user name is unknown
to AutoShare, but that is apparently not it (unless there's no
document folder entitled AutoShare...).
An upgrade to the current version is recommended of course :-)
I plan on letting the above message be more specific at some point.

They almost always are. As soon as the mail server puts a message
file in the Filed Mail folder, AutoShare processes and deletes it.
And as soon as AutoShare puts a message file in the Incoming Mail
folder, the mail server grabs and deletes it. You need to find a way
to make time stand still for each case until you have moved a copy of
the file out of the folder.
The most basic way of doing this is to create a temporarily
situation, in which you have only one of the two server applications
running.
Another way is to go to the Extras menu and Disable Processing, so
that AutoShare won't process any message file in the Filed Mail
folder. You can also Enable Locking, so that processed files put in
the Incoming mail folder are locked and shouldn't be touched by the
mail server (I think that EIMS however is a bad boy in this respect).
There are yet other ways, but I'm sure you get the picture.

I did this, found a zero, and followed your instructions. Now I have a

After you had changed the settings, how many hours until logs and
digests get mailed did it say? By looking at that a week ago, you
would have known what time to expect the logs. You can still do it

I'm not sure I understand the question. If you're asking where the
database format file for a list using the built-in format is, then
see the section on "Subscriber list files and formats", "Built-in
database format":
"While the list file is still required in the List Server folder,
this file may be empty as the subscribers are automatically stored in
a file (having the same name) in the Databases folder inside the
AutoShare preferences folder."
Be sure to play with a test list first to get a feel for it.

Hours? That¹s what it means? The log says the next log is in 31852:13:47,=
and the next digest is in 31852:13:47.
Both logs and digests are set to be sent at 4pm every day. When I went to
the Extras->Resources and entered 204 in the ID field, and 1 in the
String field, the result was:
1 18 -1294295296
Repeating with an ID of 2 did nothing.

I don't know about Apple's recommendation; certinaly it would be dependant
on how much you value disk space, speed, and what applicaitons you run.
As part of a product I work on, I put together many web pages about Virtual
Memory. In specific I talk about the issues you asked about on the page:
http://www.jumpdev.com/rc8/tech/tech0007.html
This is not a sales pitch. The pages are technical, and I hope you find
them useful regardless of our product. The information discussed applies to

MacOS pretty much always runs better with VM off, in my experience.
Especially when one is doing lots of TCP/IP-related things, I think it's
a good idea to get lots of physical memory and leave the VM completely
out of it.

In my observations, my server always appear to run more efficiently with VM
turned ON. If I remember correctly, memory management is better even if
you have VM turned on to +1MB over physical RAM (default). VM was always a
problem for 68k and OS's before 8.0 as far as I thought.
But for argument sake, I'd try it with it on and off, run a few apps like
Pounder to see how the system reacts... and then go from there.

This is in response to the post regarding Virtual Memory and AppleShare
IP, although it isn't directly related to AutoShare. I agree with Jerry
Thompson that MacOS runs much better with VM turned off. Even though 64
megs of ram isn't a lot these days, ram is pretty cheap so just put in
enough to do the job....except when it comes to AppleShare IP. It seems
that ASIP has a bug that continually grabs more and more memory as it
operates until all available ram is consumed. Serge, if your machine
halts for no apparent reason, this may be the cause. For details, I
recommend reading http://www.macintouch.com/asip6mem.html. In fact,
the Macintouch site should be a daily read for all Mac users.

or the other). Having chosen this option (in the AutoShare application or =
using
AppleScript; the Admin, see the List window), both text and HTML formatted =
archive files are created if necessary and updated when a list =
contribution is
processed.
I've been to the List window (and More List and Yet More List) several =
times. I can see no options (in version 3.0.4) for Adjusting the type of =
archives. =
In fact, I don't want archives. When I started up version 3.0.4 it =
carefully created archive folders for all of the listservs. How do I get =
rid of archiving completely? It's Friday...maybe I'm just to tired to =
think this through (I've got to stop hanging out until 2:00 AM after my =
Thursday rehearsal!). =
Thanks for getting me back on the right path....at least about archives :->=

Subject: preprocesor
Hi
What i am looking for is a preprocessor that will grab the email to the
list server check to be sure there is an email address, name, and user
number. Then to check to be sure they can subscribe to a given list.
If they can then subscribe them and add all the info to a data base.
Can any of you guys write something like this? Willing to pay. You can
write to me privately.
Thanks for any help.

Subject: AutoShare List Mails to Netscape users
Hi,
I brought this up a while ago, but did not find a soultion to the problem.
When AutoShare (3.0.3 at the moment) is sending mail (AutoReply or
list-postings) to users using Netscape, they can only read the
subject line of the message, the body seems to be empty.
Only if people look at _the source_ of the message, they will find
the actual message.
Is there anything I can do about this in AutoShare?
Regards
Jochen
