SUMMARY
The host side of the gateway must always be started first, in order for HostDisp (or VMGATE) to operate correctly.

Once you start the host side of the gateway, &quot;PROFS:IDLE&quot; or &quot;PROFS:READY&quot; appears on the screen. HostDisp relies on this prompt when it &quot;polls&quot; the host to check if there is mail to download. If HostDisp does not see one of these two prompts, it exits to MS-DOS without attempting to upload or download any mail.

For detailed instructions on how to start each side of the gateway, consult the &quot;Microsoft Mail Gateway to IBM PROFS and OfficeVision LAN Administrator's Guide.&quot;
