rmm

PURPOSE

     Removes messages.

SYNOPSIS
     rmm [+folder][msgs][-help]


DESCRIPTION

     The rmm  command is used  to remove messages  from active
     status.  rmm is part of the MH (Message Handling) package
     and can be used with other MH and AIX commands.

     The rmm  command renames  the specified message  files so
     that their file names have preceding commas.  You can use
     these files as temporary backups and arrange for the cron
     command to delete your backups periodically.

FLAGS

     +folder msgs  Specifies  the messages  that  you want  to
                   remove.   msgs can  be several  messages, a
                   range  of messages,  or  a single  message.
                   You  can use  the following  message refer-
                   ences when specifying msgs:

                   num                    first                   prev
                   cur                    .                       next
                   last                   all                     sequence

                   The default message  is the current message
                   in the current folder.  rmm does not change
                   the current message.
     -help         Displays help information for the command.
