stampandsortfile map

The stampandsortfile map is similar to the other Stamp* maps in that it is responsible for creating a ThreadID, archiving the data, and writing the data out for retrieval by the stampandsortfile map. The stampandsortfile map is unique, however, because it requires no configuration. stampandsortfile is pre-configured to trigger on any file event that occurs in the installed mail directory specified by the mmgr_mail resource name.

The only requirement for correctly implementing File Post Offices is the use of valid file names. Any e-commerce data object must have a valid ThreadID to successfully process inbound and outbound data objects. The creation of a valid ThreadID is done automatically for the application maps. For the stampandsortfile map, however, it is your responsibility to create a valid file-triggering name when writing the data to the mail directory. The precise file naming conventions for File Post Office files must be followed.
