Error description
Message situation using SELECT == *MNR results in two alerts. The first alert is sent when an inquiry message is received on the message queue. The second alert is sent when a reply to the inquiry message is sent. This is a behavior change from an earlier release and does not match the documentation. For SELECT == *MNR, the desired behavior is a single alert when the inquiry message is received on the message queue.
Local fix
Specify TYPE == 05 instead of SELECT == *MNR for the message situation. Message type 05 indicates an inquiry message which is equivalent to select *MNR (message needs reply) .

The second alert is sent when a reply to the inquiry message is sent. This is a behavior change from an earlier release and does not match the documentation. For SELECT == *MNR, the desired behavior is a single alert when the inquiry message is received on the message queue.
Problem conclusion
The code was modified to only signal an alert for a reply message if the SELECT criteria is *ALL. If the SELECT criteria for a message is not explicitly specified, then SELECT is set to *ALL by default.
