You can also set this default in PS MAIL 6530 and PS MAIL 3270 on the profile screens
for those products and in PS MAIL TTY with the ALTERXEDITOR command.
When using the EDIT Text Editor
This field establishes how EDIT will be accessed if it is the text editor.
Enter VS directly. This input field controls the mode in which EDIT, a version of the
Tandem editor previous to PS TEXT EDIT, is invoked if you have EDIT on your
system and decide to use it as the text editor. Type Y (yes) to get the EDIT text editor
in virtual screen (VS) mode automatically; exiting from VS mode returns you to MAIL.
Type N (no) to invoke the EDIT text editor in command mode; you can then access VS
mode from command mode.
This field is ignored if the text editor is not EDIT or if you are using PS MAIL TTY.
What Correspondents
Can Do
As a correspondent, you can make changes to your own profiles only. On this last
page, you can alter all fields.
What Read-Only
Administrators Can Do
As a read-only administrator, you can perform the same functions as correspondents.
In addition, you can examine the contents of any correspondent's depot by first
entering a user name in the Correspondent field on the CORRESPONDENT PROFILES
menu screen and then displaying this screen. You cannot modify the fields in anyone
else's depot, however.
What System
Administrators Can Do
As a system administrator, you can alter, for any correspondent depot, any field on the
first page of the CORRESPONDENT MAIL PROFILE.
Executing the Functions Execute functions allowed by your privileges as follows:
Enter new values in all modifiable fields and press F8.
If you wish, you can make permitted changes on both pages of the
CORRESPONDENT MAIL PROFILE screen and press F8 to execute all the
changes at once. If you neglect to press F8, however, none of the changes on either
of the pages will be recorded.
Move between pages of this screen by pressing the NEXT PAGE and PREV PAGE
keys.
Recover the CORRESPONDENT MAIL PROFILE screen in its previous state by
pressing SF14. This function can be useful if, for example, the contents of the
screen become garbled due to a communication error. RECOVER brings the
screen back.
Get the Help screen for an explanation of the CORRESPONDENT MAIL PROFILE
screen or the message displayed on the advice line by pressing F15.
Return to the previous screen by pressing F16.
Return to the MAIN MENU by pressing SF16.
