Patch AFJX*5.1*32
Instead of sending two messages in response to a user query (one with the
requested information to the NETWORK,HEALTH EXCHANGE user; the other to a
server which alerts the requesting user to it), this patch sends just one
message to both. The process is thus simplified.
The two-message process also sometimes causes problems because of timing
issues. A user can be alerted that the request has been completed, but
when the user tries to view the results, it can't be found. This is
because MailMan hasn't yet delivered the first message to the
NETWORK,HEALTH EXCHANGE user. This patch and its one-message process
makes it impossible for this to happen.
NOTE: This patch should be installed during off hours, when user activity
is at a minimum. It requires patch AFJX*5.1*31.
