no broadcast notification for normal mail without novell client

I don't think you may switch, because the APIs used for sending broadcasts by Mercury are provided by the Netware Client and the use of APIs is hardcoded in Mercury. There is no output by the coremodule like "send <user> <subject>".

But may be I missunderstand your environment. I understand you're having a Novell Netware Server with Novell Accountmanagement (which ever) and Mercury configured for use of this accountmanagement. In this case Mercury assumes a Novell Netware Client for full functionality. SEND respective the Novell-APIs know about Netware Users and are capable identifiying a workstation, where the Netware user is logged in.

NET SEND only knows about local users on Windows or users in a Windows DOMAIN/Active Directory. In this case the pre-condition using NET SEND is the same username on Windowsworkstation/-domain than on Netware. But even than there is no support in Mercury for Windows Accountmanagement and in consequence no use of APIs for NET SEND.

Sorry

Is it possible to use the windows broacast system (net send) to inform the emailuser about neu emails?

Don't think so. The reason is very simple: If you're using Mercury with Novell usermanagement (Bindery/NDS/eDirectory), you have to use SEND (and similar functions) sending to a Novellaccount. Windows NET SEND only knows about Windowsaccounts (in AD for instance).

How I switch to "net sent" in the mercury core module. I don't want to create a rule for each use to send a message with "net send user ....". If you work with novell you get the sender and the subject as information!

thanks Duke
