Just for fun, I was trying the following:

RUN SMBC.PUB;INFO="-M host.3k.com -U Guest < MSGFILE"

Which works just dandy. (SMBC.PUB is the SAMBA Client program in an MPE
group).

However, when I try

RUN SMBC.PUB;INFO="-M host.3k.com -U Guest < /ACCT/GROUP/MSGFILE"
or
RUN SMBC.PUB;INFO="-M host.3k.com -U Guest < ./MSGFILE"

I get errors on the redirect file. The file exists, is an MPE file (I used
the same file in all tests, just referenced different ways) but for some
reason I get the redirect error for any variation other than just 'MSGFILE'.
(MSGFILE is just a plain text file; not a "msg" file or anything else
special)

Is this a CI/Posix bug? Do I need to escape something? (I haven't needed
to for other similar apps, but this is a posix program being executed and
I haven't tried that before from the MPE prompt).

Any ideas? The machine I'm playing on is MPE/iX 5.0 (don't recall the patch
level).
