RPTDRIV: Generating Reports

The RPTDRIV sample application uses REPORT.LIB functions, which generate delivery, nondelivery, receipt, and nonreceipt reports. RPTDRIV logs on to the messaging system as a gateway so you can send mail messages to it. RPTDRIV reads each message and generates a report, sending the report to the originator of the message.

Note  The RPTDRIV sample application runs only if the Sample Gateway was installed manually — that is, if you used the Sample Gateway's installation programs instead of running GWSETUP.EXE.

To run RPTDRIV

1. Install the sample gateway. See Installing the Sample Gateway.
2. Create a custom recipient with an address type similar to the gateway.
3. Type START RPTDRIV NOTSERV <gateway-name>.
4. Log on to a mailbox profile using Microsoft Outlook 97 or 98.
5. Submit a message to the custom recipient with one of the subject lines in the following table. RPTDRIV reads the subject line of the message and returns the corresponding report to the originator. The subject must exactly match one of the choices for the report to be generated.
