I found the problem, it's with RDP 8.5

The following cut down command (based on an MMAIL command) prompts
perfectly in RDP 8.5, however, once the lengths of name and email exceed
48 characters, the prompt in RDP fails.

As lots of MMAIL commands use this type of structure with lengths of 50
for name & email, so they all fail to prompt in RDP.

bummer....

Here is the command the prompts ok :-
CMD PROMPT('E-mail simple message')
PARM KWD(TO) TYPE(QUAL1) MIN(1) MAX(50) +
PROMPT('Recipients')
QUAL1: QUAL TYPE(*NAME) LEN(10) RSTD(*YES) DFT(*TO) +
SPCVAL((*TO 0) (*CC 1) (*BCC 2))
QUAL TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(48) MIN(1) PROMPT('''name''')
QUAL TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(48) MIN(1) PROMPT('''e-mail +
address''')

increase name and email beyond 48 chars & it fails.

I just put in a PMR for this today... same issue. Can't prompt certain
MMAIL commands. Thanks for working out the reason. With it easily
reproduced, I bet we'll see a fix soon.
