SET/USER & SHOW/USER


Syntax

/USER=username


Description

The /USER qualifier specifies which username from the profile database to act upon. If the username contains wild cards, then the entire profile database is scanned looking for usernames which match. The /UIC and /USER qualifiers may be used in the same command. In such a case, a profile entry must match both the UIC and username specifications.

In the case of the SHOW command, only matches found with a non-default setting are displayed. Use the /ALL qualifier to display all matches.

In the case of the SET command, the specified setting is made for each match found in the profile database.


Examples

In this example, forwarding is set up for the fictitious user SYSTEM-LIST. This allows mail to be sent to SYSTEM-LIST and have it automatically forwarded to managers@example.com.


EMAIL> SET FORWARD/USER=SYSTEM-LIST managers@example.com
EMAIL> SHOW FORWARD/USER=SYSTEM-LIST
SYSTEM-LIST has mail forwarded to IN%"managers@example.com" 
EMAIL>
