My face is red.

Long ago in a version of VMS far away, TMPMBX implied GRPNAM.
With the coming of VMS 4.0 it did so no longer.
A suggested way to make things work the way they used to
was to use the logical name definition

DEFINE/TABLE=LNM$PROCESS_DIRECTORY LNM$TEMPORARY_MAILBOX LNM$GROUP

and to give the people who needed it GRPNAM.

My affected systems had the definition but the accounts didn't
have the privilege. sigh.

One system (the microVax) needs group-wide mailboxes, so the
accounts got the priv. The 750 didn't, so I eliminated the
command from the system wide login command file.

Sorry to have bothered you.
