Parameters

servername

Pointer to a Unicode string containing the name of the remote server on which the function is to execute. A NULL pointer or string specifies the local computer.

msgname

Pointer to a Unicode string containing the message name to which the message buffer should be sent.

buf

Pointer to a buffer of message text.

buflen

The length, in bytes, of the message text in buf.
