The HEADERS command takes one argument, a message sequence. It will then
out Lput all the headers of that sequence in order of lowest message number
to highest.
" U V
The HEADER command outputs the one-line header summary of the current
me ]ssage sequence.
`
The STATUS command tells you relevant information and stat fistics about
your current message file, i.e. how many messages are deleted, unseen, nhow
large the file is, etc.
r
The TYPE command takes a single argument, a w message sequence. It then
types out the bodies of those messages.
The @ TYPE command types out the message again.
The TYPE command types out the cu rrent message (not the one you are sending!).
The LITERAL-TYPE command tak es a single argument, a message sequence. It then
types out the bodies of those mess ages, without regard to ONLY-TYPE-HEADERS
or DONT-TYPE-HEADERS.
The LITE !RAL-TYPE command types out the message again, without suppressing
any headers.
( * *
The LITERAL-TYPE command types out the current message (not the one you are
s @ 2ending!), without suppressing any headers.
7
The MARK command takes one argume ;nt, a message sequence. It will then mark
the messages in that sequence as seen.
( C D
The MARK command marks the message currently being read as seen.
K
The L DELETE command takes one argument, a message sequence and marks it
for deletion. T The messages are not erased until the EXPUNGE or EXIT
command is given.
\
The ] DELETE command deletes the message currently being read. The
messages are not eras eed until the EXPUNGE or EXIT command is given at
top level.
l
The KILL comm nand takes one argument, a message sequence and marks it
for deletion. The messages vare not erased until the EXPUNGE or EXIT
command is given. It then does an implicit NEXT command.
The KILL command deletes the message currently being read. The
messages are not erased until the EXPUNGE or EXIT command is given at
top lev el. It then does an implicit NEXT command.
The KEYWORDS command takes t wo arguments, a keywords list and a message
sequence. It will then mark the message !s in that sequence as being
included in the keyword. To define a keyword, put a lin )e in your MM.INIT
of the form:
KEYWORDS list-of-keywords
This feature is useful f 2or classifying old messages.
6
The UNKEYWORDS command takes two arguments, : a keywords list and a message
sequence. It will then mark the messages in that seq Cuence as not being
included in the keyword.
H
The KEYWORDS command takes a K keywords list as an argument and marks
the current message being included in the ke @ Tyword.
U
The UNKEYWORDS command takes a keywords list as an argument and unma \rks
the current message so that it is no longer included in the keyword.
e e
The NEXT command goes to the next message in the file (or message sequence
if in R mEAD mode) and types it if undeleted.
r
The PREVIOUS command goes to the previ vous message in the file and types it
if undeleted.
|
The JUMP command allows ~ you to specify a message in the current message
file to "jump" to. In other words, this allows you to set the current
message number. Most commands do an implicit JU MP to the last message
they operated on, so this command is normally not needed.
(
The FLAG command takes one argument, a message sequence. It marks the
message s in that sequence with the FLAG bit. So with other commands that
take message seque )nces as arguments, the FLAGGED sequence will access
those messages.
1
The 1 FLAG command flags the message currently being read.
8
The UNFLAG command : takes a single argument, a message sequence and unflags
all the messages in that se Bquence. Use the FLAG command to make messages
of importance "stand out" in your mes Ksage file. You can then access them
via the FLAGGED message sequence.
S
The S UNFLAG command unflags the message currently being read.
Z
The UNMARK command \ takes a single argument, a message sequnce and then
unmarks all the messages in tha @ dt sequence, i.e. makes them appear unseen.
i
The UNMARK command removes the ma mrked status from the message currently
being read, i.e. makes it appear unseen.
( u v
The UNANSWER command takes a single argument, a message sequnce and then
remo ~ves the answered status from all the messages in that sequence.
The UNAN SWER command removes the answered status from the message
currently being read.
(
The UNDELETE command takes a single argument, a message sequence and then
und @ eletes all the messages in that sequence.
The UNDELETE command undeletes th e message currently being read.
$
The BLANK command blanks the terminal scree (n if it is a display.
+
The EXIT command is used to erase any deleted message 1s in the current
message file and end a session with MM.
7
The LOGOUT command 9 will stop MM, expunge your message file, and log you
out from the system.
B B
The EXPUNGE command is used to erase deleted messages from the current
message fil @ Je and write out a new copy of the file.
O
The ANSWER command takes 1 argume Snt, a message sequence you would like to
answer. So, to reply to message 3 you would [ say ANSWER 3 where 3 is the
message number. Or you could answer any other message s dequence. After
typing ANSWER 3 and then carriage return it asks you "Reply message # l3 to:"
and awaits one of "ALL" or "SENDER". If you respond with ALL, then your
answ uer will go to everyone in the header of the message: the person who
sent it to you a }nd everyone else. If you respond with SENDER, then your
answer will only go to the sender of the message. The REPLY command is a
synonym for this command.
The COUNT command takes a message sequence, and prints out the number
of messages in that sequence.
The APPEND command takes a message sequence, and appends t @ hose messages
together into one message.
$
The READ command takes one argume (nt, a message sequence and starts reading
the messages in that sequence in special r 0ead-mode.
2
The SEND command sends the message. Also, if you simply type c 9arriage
return in send mode, it will attempt to send out the message.
A
The A SEND command starts sending a message. It prompts for the
addresses, subjects and Jtext of the message. After typing the
text, type either CTRL/Z or ESCAPE; this will R either put you in
send-mode or send the message immediately, depending upon the
se [tting of the ESCAPE-AUTOMATIC-SEND profile option. In send-mode,
either confirm wit ch a carriage return or the SEND command to actually
send the message. To modify or ledit the message before sending it,
use the EDIT command in send-mode.
t
The t CONTINUE command resumes a SEND which was interrupted or QUITed
out of.
} }
The QUIT command gets out of this mode and returns back to the top level
prompt.
"
The EDIT command edits the message currently being read.
The EDIT command takes one of the following arguments:
HEADERS -- edit the headers o f the message
TEXT -- edit the text of the message
(If you simply type EDIT foll owed by a carriage return it defaults to
TEXT.)
%
The DELIVERY-OPTIONS co 'mmand takes one argument, a delivery option name.
This decides whether to mail the m 0essage and/or send it to the recipient's
terminal.
6
The AFTER command takes 8 one argument, a date/time parameter in standard
TOPS-20 format, and requests the sy Astem mailer to suppress delivery of
this message until after the specified time.
( I J
The ERASE command takes one of the following arguments:
ALL -- erase th Re entire message
BCC -- erase the blind carbon-copies address list
CC -- er Zase the carbon-copies address list
REPLY-DATE -- erase the reply date
SUBJECT c-- erase the subject
TEXT -- erase the text
TO -- erase the to address list " k
l
The DISPLAY command takes one of the following arguments:
ALL -- sho tws the entire message
BCC -- shows only the blind-carbon copy addresses
CC -- |shows only the carbon copy addresses
FROM -- shows only the from address
HEADER - - shows only the message header
REPLY-TO -- shows only the reply-to addresses
SUB h the subject
TEXT -- shows only the text
TO -- shows only the t o recipients
(If you simply type DISPLAY followed by a carriage return it displays the
entire message.)
!
The REPLY command replies to the message currently be 'ing read. You have
the option of replying to all recipients of the current message /or just
the sender, and to include or not include the text of the current message
i 8n the reply.
:
The USER-HEADER command takes two arguments; a header keyword a @s
defined in the USER-HEADERS line in the MM.INIT file, and a header
text line, and I inserts the line with that name in the message
header.
O
The SAVE-DRAFT tak Qes one argument, a file name, and saves the message
currently being composed into th Zat file to be retrieved later using the
RESTORE-DRAFT command.
a
The REST bORE-DRAFT command takes a single argument, a file name created
by the SAVE-DRAFT com kmand, and restores the state of the send from that
draft.
r
The COPY comm sand takes one argument, a file name, and copies the message
currently being read int |o that file.
~
The COPY command takes two arguments. The first is a file name and the
second is a message sequence. It copies the specified message sequence
in g e leaving it intact in the current file.
The MOVE command t akes one argument, a file name. It moves the message
currently being read into that file and deletes the message.
"
The MOVE command takes two arguments. The &first is a file name and the
second is a message sequence. It moves the specified m /essage sequence into
the given file7and deletes the sequence from the current file.
8
The LIST command prints the message currently being read on the listing
@device (usually the lineprinter).
D
The LIST command takes two arguments: Han optional switch (/HEADERS-ONLY
or /SEPARATE-PAGES), and then a message sequence. Q It lists the sequence
on the listing device (usually the lineprinter). Use FILE-LI YST to list
messages to an arbitrary file. The switch, if specified, must occur
bef bore the message sequence.
e
The FILE-LIST command is similar to LIST, except j that it takes an
argument which specifies the file to which you would like to LIST sthe
message currently being read.
w
The FILE-LIST command is similar to LI {ST, except that it first takes an
argument which specifies the file to which you wou ld like to LIST.
After the file argument, it takes an optional switch (/HEADERS-ONLY
or
/SEPARATE-PAGES), and a message sequence. The switch, if specified,
must occur before the message sequence.
The FORWARD command takes one argument, the list of addresses to
forward to. It forwards the message currently being read to t &hat
list. If the argument is not specified, it is prompted for with
To: when you t .ry to send the message.
2
The FORWARD command takes one argument, a messag 7e sequence. It forwards the
messages in the sequence to an address which you specif ?y after typing
carriage return.
C
The REMAIL command is similar to FORWARD, e Hxcept instead of inserting
the message after typein, the message is sent as is with Pthe header
modified to indicate who did the remailing.
W
The SYSTEM-MSGS co Ymmand will read in the system messages file
POBOX:<SYSTEM>MAIL.TXT.
a
The a BBOARD command takes a single argument, which is the name of
the Bulletin Board fil je to read in. An index is maintained for
BBoard files in order to speed up the file r-parsing process. The
index file also records the time of the last read for each us {er
on the system, so that users may view only unread mail.
The last read date is
updated when the file is read in, whether
or not you decide to read the unseen messa @
ges.
The DAYTIME command displays the current date and time.
The
ALIAS command takes a single argument, a user name. It then
causes MM to behave as
if you were that user; all mail sent will be
"from" that user (your login name will
% be the "sender"), MM will be
read the aliased user's mail file, and MM will use the
. aliased user's
MM.INIT.
1
You are currently at READ level, invoked by givi
6ng the READ command. READ
allows you to process your new messages (or for that matt
?er old ones) in a
sequential obvious manner. Type a ? for a list of the commands you
G can use
at this level. They represent a subset of the top level commands, and
unle
Pss otherwise specified each command operates only on the message you
are currently r
Xeading. For more information type HELP followed by ? for a
list of the things you ca
an get help on here.
d
You are currently at SEND level, invoked by giving th
ie SEND command. SEND
allows you to compose a message to send to someone and edit th
re particular
fields of interest (subject, to-list, cc-list, bcc-list, text, etc.). Y
zou
may use your editor to edit the text by giving the text command. Note that
while typing text in you may type ^K to have what you have typed thus far
re-displayed, ^ E to invoke your editor, and ^B to insert a file. To exit,
use ^Z or <ESC>. For more help, you can type HELP ? to get a list of the
commands help is available for at th is level.
A message sequence is a series of messages that have some trait % in
common. Various specifiers, listed below, identify a message sequence;
the int -ersection of the specifiers given determine the messages to be
processed. Some spec 6ifiers are compound and have the form of a numeric
list or keyword followed by argum >ent (e.g., "1:9,11,27", "FROM FOO", or
"SINCE date/time"). These must be terminated G by a <CR>.
If there is only one such compound specifier in the sequence, the
seq Ouence may appear all on one line with the compound element at the end
as in "RECENT XUNDELETED FROM FOO<CR>".
If more than one compound element is given, the sequence `must start with
",<CR>" after which specifier sequences as defined above may appear ion
successive lines. A bare <CR> terminates this.
The message sequences availabl qe are:
AFTER Equivalent to SINCE
ALL Every message in your file, whether delete zd or not.
ANSWERED Messages you have REPLY'd to or ANSWER'd
BEFORE Messages before
a given date
CURRENT MM keeps a pointer to the current message it is
set at. T
his sequence (which consists of only 1
message obviously) is that message.
DELETE

The ECHO command takes a text line as an argument and echos it
terminal. This is useful in "TAKE" files.
ThesENABLEccommandtenab o any) and attempts
tormakewanye"read-only" file be
The DISABLE command disables your capabilities (if you had any) @ and makes
the current file read-only.
The QUIT command quits out of MM
without erasing any deleted messages.
The BUG command can be used to report problems or suggestions you
have for MM to the maintainers of MM. BUG puts you into SEND
mode with a predefined list of addresses to send the bug to. You
send it the # normal way you would send a message. The response
may take a short while, e.g. sev ,eral days.
.
The VERSION command shows the version number of the current MM, 4 including
its configuration.
8
The FROM command allows you to specify the ="From:" field for the
currentmessage; entering a null field defaults to the normal
"From:" field generated by MM.
I
The FROM command allows you to specify the N"From: " field for all
subsequent messages; entering a null field defaults to the no Vrmal
"From:" field generated by MM.
[
The REPLY-TO command allows you to spe _cify the "Reply-To: " field
for the current message. Entering a null field defaul gts to
the user login name if a "From:" field has been set up via the
FROM command; potherwise it removes the "Reply-To:" specification
entirely.
w
The REPLY-TO xcommand allows you to specify the "Reply-To:" field
for all subsequent messages. En tering a null field defaults to
the user login name if a "From:" field has been set up via the
FROM command; otherwise it removes the "Reply-To:" specification
entirel " y.
The SORT command takes one argument, a message sequence, and sorts it
ch ronologically by the dates the messages were generated.
!
The CHECK command #is used to check for new messages that may have arrived
while you are using MM.
( + ,
The STEP command steps to the next BBoard that has mail unread by
the user. 4Use the FIND command to start the search with the
first BBoard in the list. Use the < SET BBOARD-FILES to create a
list, which may be saved with the CREATE-INIT command. " E
F
The FIND command reads BBoard files from the list that the user
has set Mup with the SET BBOARD-FILES command, until it finds a
file that has mail that the u Vser has not yet seen. It then
leaves the user at top-level with this file read in.
The record of last read date is updated to the current time-date,
whether or not gyou actually read the messages.
FIND FIRST scans from the beginning of the BBOARD- oFILES list, while
FIND NEXT continues to the next file with new mail. Note that
a xFIND FIRST command must be given before FIND NEXT; and that
FIND<return> will act li ke FIND FIRST when first typed, and as
FIND NEXT (or STEP) thereafter.
The IGNORE command may be used to indicate that the user is not interested
in the curre nt BBoard. The read date is updated as though all of the
messages had been read, a nd a STEP command is done.
The BBDATE command changes the stored date of th "e last-read BBoard message
for the current BBoard file. The single argument is the +starting date
for assuming a message hasn't been seen.
1
The GET command ta 3kes one argument, a file name. It will read in that
message file, parse the message <s and act as if that were the default
message file. All commands now apply to that @ Dfile.
F
The EXAMINE command takes one argument, a file name. It is like the M
GET command, except that the file is read-only, and the file reference
date is not U updated. Any command which alters the file is a no-op.
\
The NET-MAIL comma ^nd will attempt to send any messages that may be queued
in your directory.
f f
The PUSH command will give you a new EXEC. This means that you'll get a
fresh copy o of the TOPS-20 command interpreter which prompts you with @. At
this point you can wthen do anything, and you may get back to MM by typing
POP.
~
The TEXT comm and allows you to continue typing the text of the message.
The INSERT co mmand takes one argument, a file name. It inserts that file
after the current text o f the message.
The SUBJECT command takes a line of text as an argument to make the
subject of the message you are sending.
The BCC command takes a "n argument consisting of addresses separated by
commas. These addresses will receive * blind carbon copies of your outgoing
message which means that those recipients who 3are addressed in the normal
manner, i.e. TO: and CC: will not see that the BCC: addr @ ;esses have
received the message as well.
@
The CC command takes an arugment Dconsisting of addresses separated by
commas. These addresses will receive carbon cop Lies of your outgoing
message.
P
The TO command takes a list of addresses se Uparated by commas as an
argument. It adds these address as to recipients for the me @ ]ssage.
_
The REMOVE command takes a list of addresses separated by commas as fan
argument. It removes those from the recipient lists of the message.
n
The n SPELL command invokes the SPELL program on the whole message.
See the SPELL program w's documentation for how to use it.
{
The SPELL command invokes the SPELL pr ogram in the TEXT field of the message.
See the SPELL program's documentation for ho w to use it.
The EDIT command takes one argument, a message sequence. It pr oceeds to
edit each message in that message sequence using the editor specified by
the EDITOR: logical name. For example, to use EMACS as your editor in
MM (and other ! programs), do:
DEFINE EDITOR: SYS:EMACS
(or wherever EMACS lives on your system) *at EXEC command level or in
your LOGIN.CMD file.
0
The DIRED command takes 2 a list of message sequences, and starts the
DIRED subsystem of the MMAIL package to ; maintain your message file
ala disk DIRED (the message headers are your mail file's C "directory").
To use DIRED, your editor must be EMACS and you must load the MMAIL L
library. The default EMACS.INIT will do this for you.
R
The PROFILE comman Td will help you setup an environment for using MM
corresponding to your desires in m ]essage handling. It asks you a series of
questions and then makes MM remember them ( evia the MM.INIT file).
It does not go through all of the MM.INIT options possible. n To set the
fancier options, you can use the SET command along with CREATE-INIT, or v
use an editor on the MM.INIT file. HELP SET <option-name> will document
that part @ icular option, e.g. HELP SET USER-NAME.
The CREATE-INIT command will make a file, MM.INIT, in your
directory which MM subsequently reads when you run MM agai n. In
it, you can set various switches to make your MM environment more
comfortabl e and easy to use for your own personal tastes. You
can either edit MM.INIT with an ! editor or use the SET command to
change the settings of the MM.INIT parameters. Th )e PROFILE
command will step you through some of the basic set variables,
and the SH 2OW command will list all the current settings. The
"HELP SET var-name" command gives : more information about each
variable, as well as displaying the current settings.
" C D
The DEFINE command allows you to define abbreviations, or "aliases", for
recipients or lists of recipients, to make it easier to type long or
hard-to-rememb Ter addresses. The syntax is
DEFINE (ALIAS) alias-keyword (AS) recipient-list
\where alias-keyword is a name consisting only of alphanumeric characters
or "-", and e recipient-list is a comma-separated list of addresses. For
instance,
MM>defINE m (ALIAS) mm-hackers (AS) chris, mrc@simtel20, mkl@nic
defines mm-hackers as an abb vreviation for "chris, mrc@simtel20, mkl@nic".
Since alias definitions are only valid ~ for the current invocation of MM,
you should put any "DEFINE" commands you wish to use all the time in your
MM.CMD file (or use the CREATE-INIT command to save them in your MM.INIT).
The SHOW command displays the current MM environment varia ble
settings, as established by a SET command or in an MM.INIT file.
The PROFILE co mmand steps you through setting some basic
variables, and the "HELP SET var-name" co )mmand will describe
individual variables, as well as showing the current values. The 1
WRITE-INIT command can be used to write-out the current set of
values to the MM.IN :IT file on your user directory.
>
The TAKE command takes one argument, a file B name. It sets MM's
command input to be from that file. MM closes the file and
re Kstores input from the terminal when any of the following
happen: end of file, comman Sd error, an ALIAS command (which has
to be able to do a TAKE of the aliased user's M \M.CMD), or a TAKE
command with no argument (this suppresses the "[End of ...]"
mess dage). MM automatically TAKEs the file MM.CMD on your login
directory at startup.

The SET command is used to change variables initialized from the MM.INIT
file on your user directory. The changed va riables can be written to
your MM.INIT file with the CREATE-INIT command. The PROFI LE command is
used to create a basic environment and guides you through some of the
set options. The HELP SET command takes a third argument which is a
variable name, ( resulting in individual help messages being printed for
each set variable, as well 1as displaying the current value. The SHOW
command lists the current settings for al 9l variables.
The SET PRINTER-DEFAULT command is used to set the default printer u Bnit
to use for the LIST commands you issue. The units are the same as those
that w Jould be used on the UNIT: switch on the EXEC PRINT command.
Currently available unit Ss at the NIC are GRUMPY, SMOKEY, SPEEDY, and
PIPPIN, as well as DDNPMO for users at [the DDN Progrom Management Office.
SET ALIAS <alias-name> <recipient-list> is dused to define an abbreviations,
or "aliases" for lists of one or more recipients wh lose mail addresses are
hard to remember or type. For instance, the command
SET uALIAS mm-hackers mrc@simtel20, mkl@sri-nic, chris@columia
causes "mm-hackers", whe }n specified as a recipient in the SEND command,
to be replaced by "mrc@simtel20, ... ".
N.B. Aliases are expanded only when you type them as arguments to the
SEND or related commands. In particular, they are not expanded when
they appear in your MM. INIT, in system-wide mailing lists, etc.
SET BBOARD-FILES takes a list of bulle tin board file names as an argument.
Fields not specifed in the file names default t (o POBOX:<BBOARD>MAIL.TXT,
so the command
SET BBOARD-FILES <FORUM>,AP
would setup 0a list with POBOX:<FORUM>MAIL.TXT and POBOX:<BBOARD>AP.TXT as
the BBoard files of in 9terest. This list is used by the FIND and
STEP commands. When a list is entered, a Any previously entered list is lost.
The list may also be read from a BB.INIT file Jwhen BB starts. Use the
CREATE-INIT command after the SET BBOARD-FILES command.
R
SET DEFAULT-BBOARD takes a string of up to 47 characters, which is
used as the def [ault argument to the BBOARD command. If no string
is specified, this defaults to PO cBOX:<BBOARD>MAIL.TXT
SET BBOARD-BEHAVIOR-ON-RESCAN takes a single numeric argum lent.
If zero, the FIND and BBOARD commands will return to EXEC command
level if no tnew mail is read. If non-zero, the FIND command will
step to the user's MAIL.TXT ra }ther than returning to EXEC, and
the BBOARD command will stay in the specified file whether or not
new messages are found. This applies ONLY to BBOARD and FIND
comman ds entered on the command line.
SET VERBOSE-BBOARD-MESSAGES takes a single numer ic argument. If
non-zero, MM announces exciting events such as new index-file
crea tion. Zero, the default, suppresses these messages.
SET TERSE-TEXT-PROMPT takes 'a single numeric argument. If zero,
the default, MM prompts for message text input 0with a list of the
various control characters to exit text input and what they do.
8If non-zero, MM simply prompts with "Msg:".
SET BLANK-SCREEN-STARTUP takes a Anumeric argument. If non-zero,
the default, the screen is cleared at startup and be Ifore each
message typed out when in READ mode.
SET CONTROL-E-EDITOR takes a nume Rric argument. If negative, never
enter the editor on ^E; if zero, ask if should ent Zer the editor; if
positive, the default, always enter the editor.
SET CONTROL-N c-ABORT takes a numeric argument. If negative, never
abort on ^N; if zero, the defau klt, ask if should abort; if
