HELPLIB.HLB  —  TCPIP Services, SMTP  Multiple Recipients, Examples
    The following examples show different methods of using
    distribution lists.

    1. This example sends mail to users whose names are on the local
       OpenVMS distribution list AGENCIES.DIS. The distribution list
       file is displayed in this example. The MAIL$INTERNET_MODE
       logical name is not set, so by default unqualified Internet
       addresses would be sent over DECnet; therefore, the AUDUBON@NY
       address is included with the SMTP% prefix and quotation marks.

       $ TYPE AGENCIES.DIS

       !
       ! This is an OpenVMS distribution file named AGENCIES.DIS.
       !
       SMTP%"audubon@ny"
       WILLIAMS@BELTWAY.ORG
       WILDLIFE@DALLAS.ORG
       jmuir@19.8.7.6
       SEC@GP.INTER8.ORG
       BATES::SCOPE
       !
       $ MAIL
       MAIL> SEND
       To:  @AGENCIES.DIS

    2. This example sends mail to users whose names are on the
       local SMTP distribution list SYS$SPECIFIC:[TCPIP$SMTP]NATL_

       example.

       $  TYPE NATL_INTEREST.DIS
