vticrecv.log is generated by vtic during inprocessing of tic files. If it finds
vticrecv.hdr then it will write that as the header of the file, then add lines
for each file it processes. Once finished, it will look for vticrecv.ftr and
add that as the file's footer. That is all that vtic.exe does with the file.
You have to use vpost or a utility to make the announcement.

I would first check your vtic.log for any errors. Check vticrecv.log and see
what is actually in there. If it has content then I'd check your setup for
posting the announcement.
