[molpro-user] MP2 on open-shell systems?

[Peter Knowles]

http://www.molpro.net/info/current//doc/manual/node320.html does explicitly
state 'closed-shell'.  If you want open-shell, both RMP2 and UMP2 are available
but not documented except in the quickstart guide (
http://www.molpro.net/info/current//doc/quickstart/node14.html ) .

I have been attempting to apply MP2 to the triplet state of a molecule, but I
receive an error message pointing out that the molecule is not electronically
closed-shell.  I have looked at the manual, but there is no caution regarding
closed vs. open shell systems.  Is it possible to perform MP2 calculations on
open-shell systems using Molpro?
