Hello again managers,
Well, somebody asked me to summarize it, so here it goes..
Oh! By the way..I need another help, I am looking for Listproc ou
Majordomo to OSF/1 3.2. I installed a version of Listproc, but
unfortanlly, it did not compiled, so, where can I get the last version or
a specific version for OSF/1??
Again, many thanks in advance, and here is the summary.
Thanks to:

> Example:

> Finally, type:
>
> vacation -I

>at your prompt. This will create some files in your directory to make
>vacation work.
>
> Now you're all set! Any message sent to you will be kept in your
>mailbox. The sender will receive a message back with the text from
>'.vacation.msg'.

> In the case that you come back from vacation and want to stop the
>vacation program from running, the easiest solution is to type:
>
> rm .forward

>This will remove the .forward file.
