MCI: Problems with International Carriers XPC Access to MCI
ID: Q105524
|
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Mail Gateway to MCI, version 2.1b
SUMMARY
The Microsoft Mail Gateway to MCI requires the TSR (terminate-and-stay-
resident) serial driver XPC.EXE, which in turn requires this setup:
- 8 data bits
- none or space parity
- 1 stop bit
The communications capabilities offered by international carriers (such as
Tymnet and Infonet) are often not compatible with the Microsoft Mail
Gateway to MCI. Most international carriers use 7 data bits, even parity
and 1 stop bit. The MCI Gateway requires 8 data bits, none or space parity
and 1 stop bit. Other carriers try to use the MCI Gateway with the MNP
protocol, but it is not supported by Microsoft.
