PC Ext: External Mail Program's -Qx Option (92438)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 2.1
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.0
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.2
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.5
This article was previously published under Q92438 SUMMARY
The External Mail program in Microsoft Mail supports an undocumented -Qx
option that supplements the documented -V (verbose) option. The -Qx option
reports on major operations and displays the results in the Activity
section of the External program screen.
The four -Qx options are as follows:
- Q1 reports main points of the program when scanning and delivering mail.
- Q2 reports the state of the serial buffer.
- Q3 reports the state of the P1 files in versions 3.2 and 3.0. It is not
available in Microsoft Mail version 2.1.
- Q4 reports memory usage.
Each option places its report in the "LAN Postoffice Mail Activity" section
of External's program screen.
The -Q4 option does not log any information into the SESSION.LOG file. The
memory usage information reported by -Q4 is cryptic, especially in
Microsoft Mail version 2.1.
The -Qx options are meant for advanced developers and product support
personnel to help them debug programs and troubleshoot problems. Because of
the technical and cryptic nature of the -Qx reports, they can be misleading
to less technical users.
