This edition includes the following changes since the August, 1974 edition:
MAIL/A to append to an earlier message. Also, the REENTER facility
is better interfaced to the <lf> continued message feature.
RESOURCES command no longer lists job slots and Data Disc channels
available; this information can be derived from the system WHO line.
.once turn off "αβ";
In TELNET, etc., αβF now asks for a filename to append to, rather than
using the name remembered from an earlier ⊗D as βF does. ⊗<form> puts
a formfeed in the output file, if any.
CONTROL-R in the line editor repeats the last CONTROL-S or CONTROL-K.
Add VOD to the device list.
New commands DRD (runs DIRED) and PARRY (runs PARRY).
The NET,GUE guest account no longer exists. However, although this
fact is documented, the information about the guest account is still
included in case They change Their mind again.
MAIL, SEND, GRIPE, TYPE, PARRY, and DIRECTORY commands may be given
without being logged in.

.ERROR
The first sentence of the third paragraph on page 4 (section 1.3)
should be replaced as follows:
A vacant terminal should say %3TAKE ME I'M YOURS!%* along with a line
of cryptic information on an otherwise blank screen. The cryptic
information is the ⊗∪system WHO line,∩ described on page 17.
.ERROR
The following lines should be added to the device table on page 7 (section
1.5) The old AD device is still present but not for long.

IMP\Interface Message Processor for ARPA network connections
ADC\Analog to digital converter
DAC\Digital to analog converter
VOD\Voder (speech synthesizer)

.ERROR
On page 14 (section 2.2, line editor), add this after the paragraph
about CONTROL-K:
CONTROL-R repeats the last CONTROL-S or CONTROL-K command given
while editing the current line. It does not use the following
character as an argument, since it remembers the argument from the
CONTROL-S or CONTROL-K command. (Inside only.)
.ERROR
On page 18 (section 2.5, WHO line), in the paragraph about XTIME,
change the last sentence to ``%1... will be %3"%1 instead of %3'%1
as it usually is.%5''
.ERROR
Add the following paragraph to the description of the audio switch
escape commands on page 21 (section 2.9):
Your program can control the audio switch selection for your terminal
by UUO. Although programs cannot in general change the audio switch
setting for another terminal, there is a BEEP UUO which can be used to
cause any terminal's loudspeaker to be connected to the beep generator
for a short time (less than one second). This is used by, e.g., the
SEND command to call the recipient's attention to a message on his
screen. You can permit or refuse such beep connections by UUO or by
escape commands; BREAK B refuses beeps, and ESC B permits them. Any
change to your audio switch setting by other means (e.g. ESC U) also
cancels the effect of BREAK B, so you must repeat the BREAK B command
after changing your selection.
.ERROR
Add the following paragraph to section 4.2, page 24:
If your core image includes an upper segment (see page 11), you can set
or clear the write protection bit with the SETUWP or CLRUWP commands. You
cannot clear write protection for a sharable upper segment if it is
protected against you. (See the ⊗∪UUO Manual∩ for a complete discussion
of upper segment protection.) These commands also take an optional octal
argument, which is used to set the protection code for the segment if
you are permitted to change the code.
.ERROR
Add the following sentence to the description of the START command on
page 25 (section 4.3):
If the octal argument is preceded by %3+%* or %3-%*, the number is added
to or subtracted from the program's normal starting address to determine
the desired starting address.
.ONCE SELECT 5;
Also add the following sentence to the description of the REENTER
command on the same page:
An octal argument preceded by %3+%* (optional in this case) or %3-%*
will be added to or subtracted from the reenter address.
.ERROR
Add the following sentence to the description of the FORK command on
page 26 (section 4.4):
If the system's job capacity is used up, so that it is impossible to
start a new job, your terminal remains attached to the existing job.
.ERROR
Add the following to the description of the ASSIGN command on page
27 (section 4.5):
Non-local guest account users (see LOGIN, section 5.1) cannot use
most non-sharable devices, either by program request or by the
ASSIGN command. Since there is no operator on this system, remote
users have no way to mount tapes, collect listings, etc.; hence, the
monitor does not allow such users to attempt I/O on those devices.
The ASSIGN command is used in a special way for User Disk Packs. A UDP
may be used as a ⊗∪public∩ or a ⊗∪private∩ device. In the former case,
other jobs may use the same UDP at the same time, as with the system
file disks. A privately assigned UDP, however, is restricted to the one
job which assigned it. (Note: a privately assigned UDP is still a
⊗∪sharable∩ device, in the sense that the job which owns it can operate
on several files simultaneously, unlike non-sharable devices like
DECtape drives, on which only one operation can be in progress at any
time.) A UDP is normally a file-structured device, with a directory
structure just like the one described for the main file disk in section
1.5. However, it is also possible to use a UDP as an unstructured
device, in which allocation of storage on the disk pack is done
explicitly by the user program. This mode of using the UDP is called
⊗∪old∩ mode (because it used to be the only mode available). The
format of the ASSIGN command for a UDP is
.SAMPLE
ASSIGN mode UDPn logical-name
The optional mode argument can be
.TABLE
PUBLIC\public access, file structured UDP
PRIVATE\private access, file structured UDP
OLD\private access, non-structured UDP
.END
The default mode is PUBLIC. A later ASSIGN command for the same device
can be used to change the mode from PRIVATE to PUBLIC, or from PUBLIC
to PRIVATE if no other jobs are using the device. However, to change
into or out of OLD mode, the device must first be deassigned by all
jobs using it. This is because a particular pack either is or isn't
formatted for file structured use, and the mode given in the ASSIGN
command must agree with that of the pack itself. (A mismatch is not
detected when you give the ASSIGN command, but will be caught when
your program actually tries to use the device.) The only exception is
that a formatted pack may be read, but not written, in OLD mode.
Although we have only one disk drive for user packs at present, the
monitor provides for the possibility of several such drives, and
treats %3UDP%* as a generic device name. The command %3ASSIGN#UDP%*
will select a drive only if it is not in use, although a command which
specifies a particular drive (%3ASSIGN#UDP1%*) will succeed if the
drive is in use but PUBLIC. Unlike other devices, the UDP must be
ASSIGNed before it can be used by a program, to ensure that the
proper mode is used. For more details on the use of user packs, see
the ⊗∪UUO Manual∩.
.ERROR
Add this paragraph to the description of DEASSIGN on page 27:
Because UDPs can be assigned in a way which permits public access, the
DEASSIGN command for a UDP types a message at your terminal indicating
whether or not the pack should be dismounted. If you interrupt a
program which is using a UDP and deassign the UDP, it will still be
considered in use by your program until you reset it (for example,
by the %3CORE#0%* command). You will then be told that you may
dismount the pack.
.ERROR
Add this to the description of the PJOB command on page 27 (section 4.6):
The argument can be a name of the form %3DDn%*, to find out who is
using Data Disc channel n. You will be told the TTY line number, if
any, as well as the job number. Also, if the argument is a UDP, the
command may type out %3UDP1 PUBLIC%* if applicable, and will type a
job number only if that job has assigned the drive as PRIVATE or OLD.
.ERROR
Add the following sentence to the description of the command %3TIME 0%* on
page 28 (section 4.6):
It also types the percentage spent in the monitor at interrupt level,
but this information is provided for the benefit of system wizards and is
not particularly meaningful to users.
.ONCE SELECT 5
Also, add this to the description of the DAYTIME command on that page:
If the job has been logged in since the previous day, dates (day of
the month) are typed along with the three times.
.ERROR
Replace the description of RESOURCES (page 28, section 4.6) with this:
The RESOURCES command lists the available system resources: it types
the number of free tracks on the file disk, and the names of free
devices (mag tape, etc.) other than the disk, IMP, and terminals.
A separate line is typed for each UDP drive (currently there is only one)
unless the drive is detached from the system or being used for swapping.
The line contains just the device name if the drive is free; otherwise it
indicates whether it is %3PUBLIC%* or %3PRIVATE%*;
if the drive has a file-structured
pack mounted, its name (volume ID) and the number of free tracks,
as for the DSK device,
will be typed if known to the monitor. (That is, the name
will be typed if any input/output operation has actually happened
on that pack since it was mounted.)
.ONCE SELECT 5
Also, add this to the FILES description in the next paragraph,
after the sentence ``%1... for end-of-file seen.%*''
The letter U indicates that the file is on a UDP.
.ERROR
Replace the last paragraph on page 30 and the first paragraph on page 31
(section 5.1, LOGIN) as follows:
It is possible to set a password and file protection codes to restrict
access to a particular PPN. If the PPN you specify to LOGIN has a
password, LOGIN types %3Password=%* and you must type the correct
password to log in. Echoing of input characters is turned off so the
password does not print. Passwords may be one to six letters or digits
followed by RETURN. To protect files from unauthorized access, there
is a protection code associated with each file. The code specifies the
access allowed to the file for its owner (i.e., a user logged in under
the file's PPN), for other authorized AI Lab users,
and for guest users who are logged in remotely (from the ARPA
network, dial-up telephone lines, or campus terminals). You can set
the protection code for a file using the COPY program (see Appendix 2).
However, you must use the LOGIN program to set the protection code of
your file directory itself, and the default protection code which is
assigned to new files created in your directory if the program writing
the file does not specify a value explicitly. If you use α% as the
delimiter between the project and programmer names when you log in,
LOGIN will give you the opportunity to change your password, the file
directory protection, and the default protection for new files. The
protection codes are entered as three-digit octal numbers, with the
following meanings:
.IF XCRIBL THEN START

.end
.end
If the 400 bit is on in the protection code for a file directory, the
password associated with that area is used only for logins from a
remote site; no password will be required for local login on that
PPN. Except for the special %3NET,GUE%* guest account (see below),
remote login is not allowed on a PPN which does not have a password;
thus, if you want to be able to log in remotely but do not want to
have to type a password for local login, you can set the 400 bit in
your directory's protection code. Remote users without accounts on
the system can log in as %3NET,GUE%* (network guest) without a password.
(Instead, if you log in as %3NET,GUE%* you will be asked to type in your
name. Any name you give is accepted and stored to identify your job
as long as you remain logged in; the FINGER command (see Section 5.11)
will type the name you give to identify you to other users.) It is possible
to set up special guest accounts without the password requirement for use
by specific AI Lab project groups; consult a system programmer for more
information on this.
(Note: at the present time the NET,GUE account has been discontinued,
because it was using too much computer time. People who are not
authorized users cannot log in remotely. A few monitor commands are
allowed without login, as mentioned in the individual command
descriptions.)
Users with access to local
terminals who sometimes need to log in remotely can set a password
(with α%) for their own PPNs; remote users who want to establish their
own file directories should communicate with Lester Earnest. (Type
eth command %3MAIL LES%*.) Sometimes you may find the system is
in ⊗∪maintenance mode,∩ which means that the monitor is being debugged
and the system is not available for normal use. If you try to log in
at such a time you will be asked for the maintenance password.
.ERROR
Change the reference to %1APE%* on page 32 (section 5.1, LOGIN) to %1NS%*.
.ERROR
Add the following at the end of the LOGOUT description (page 33, section 5.2):
Any of these commands, when typed at a PTY which is not owned by a TELNET
server (that is, not the virtual terminal of an ARPA network user), simply
kills the job without running the LOGOUT program. This has approximately
the effect of KJOB/F.

Also, the second line of the table of compile-type RPG commands should be:

Replace the last paragraph on page 34 (section 5.4, COPY and SPOOL)
with this:

except for TYPE, DIRECTORY, and QSPOOL.
.ERROR
Add this to the table of MAIL commands on page 35 (section 5.5):
.TABLE
PLAN\create plan file for FINGER (see page 40)
.END
.ERROR
Replace the last paragraph of section 5.5 (MAIL, page 35) with this:
The commands in this section all require that you be logged in,
except for MAIL, SEND, GRIPE, and RCV.
.ERROR
In the table of special characters for DO (section 5.7, page 36), the
description of ? should say ``%3DO types out "A=####" and waits%*...''
rather than %3?A%*.
.ERROR
Replace the last paragraph of section 5.8 (ZERO, page 37) with this:
The ZERO program is not used for new-format (file structured) UDPs.
It can be used to change the password of an old-format UDP, and also
allows the initialization on such a UDP of the file structure
formerly used by the COPY program, although this feature is now
obsolete. The UDPUFD command is used to set passwords and
create file directories on new-format UDPs.
.ERROR
Add the following paragraph to the WHO command writeup (section 5.9,
page 38):
From a non-display terminal only, the command %3WHO/Q%* will type
only PPN and TTY for each job which is not detached. ARPA network
users are listed separately. This is intended for Quick typeout.
.ERROR
Add the following to the description of FINGER on page 40 (section 5.11):
If the programmer specified as the argument to FINGER is not logged in,
the program types the date and time of his last logout. Also, if he has
created a plan file (with the PLAN command, Appendix 4) it is typed.
FINGER will accept human being names as argument instead of programmer
names, if desired.
.ERROR
Replace the description of HELP on page 40 (section 5.11) with
The HELP command provides information about system programs and
facilities. It takes as its argument the name of some program or
concept, and provides some short description of that facility, if
such a description exists. The data for HELP comes from the [3,2]
directory; this data consists mostly of short text files which are
typed by HELP, but may also include programs or monitor commands
which HELP will run for you. If no HELP is available, but there is
a longer document available in one of the standard documentation
file directories, HELP will so inform you. If you type %3HELP%*
with no argument, the program will list the topics on which HELP
is available. (Some of the HELPers which run programs rather than
just typing text at you require that you be logged in. %3HELP#LOGIN%*
is cleverly not among those.)
.ERROR
Replace the description of SYSTAT on page 40 (section 5.11) with
The SYSTAT command runs the WHO program (see section 5.9). The old
SYSTAT program is no longer supported on this system, but the command
name was retained for compatibility with other systems.
.ERROR
Change the sentence ``%1Except for FIXIMLAC ...%*'' in the first
paragraph of section 5.12 (page 40) to ``%1Except as noted below,
they require that you be logged in.%*'' Also add ``%1This command
may be given when not logged in.%*'' to the FIXIMLAC paragraph
on the same page.
.ERROR
Delete the sentence beginning ``%1If you end the command line with ALT ...%*''
in the description of the TELNET command on page 41 (section 5.12). The effect
formerly achieved by ALT is now used automatically in all cases. Also,
add the following paragraph after the TELNET description:
It is possible to establish TELNET-like connections to remote computers
by using dial-up connections via the dataphones normally used for
incoming dial-up lines. Such dataphones are presently associated with TTY10 and
TTY11; the dataphone on TTY11 includes an automatic dialing circuit. The
DIAL command will establish an outgoing dataphone connection and thereafter
behave like a TELNET. The dial command takes as its argument either the
device name of a TTY, in which case you must dial the number you want
manually on the associated dataphone, or a telephone number in the form
.SAMPLE
{(ddd)}ddd{-}dddd
where %3d%* represents a digit and braces enclose optional characters.
In the latter case, the telephone number is dialed automatically on TTY11's
dataphone.
.ERROR
Add the following to the end of page 41 (section 5.12):
The NS command runs the News Service program, which allows access to
news stories which have been received from the
Associated Press and New York Times
news wires. The HOT command runs the HOT program, which
types AP or NYT stories as they come in.
These commands are restricted to local users at
the request of the Associated Press. Full documentation on the
news service is contained in the file NS.ME[S,DOC].
The UDPUFD command runs the UDPUFD program, which is used to create
or delete user file directories on file-structured user disk packs.
The command format is %3UDPUFD PRJ,PRG%* (you must first ASSIGN the
UDP). To create a new directory, you must know the pack password;
to change or delete a directory you must know its password. You can
change the directory's password or file protection codes with UDPUFD
as you can for the main file disk with LOGIN (see Section 5.1). You
can delete a directory only if it is empty. This
is a privileged program, and the command is restricted to local users
(as is the UDP itself).
The DRD command (not related to the Department of Redundancy Department)
runs the DIRED program, for displaying and manipulating file directories
at a Stanford display terminal. See the file DIRED.SGK[UP,DOC] for
instructions.
The PARRY command runs PARRY, the paranoid model. It may be used
without being logged in.
.ERROR
Add the following to section 6, page 42:
Privileges can be enabled or disabled at any time. That is, for each job,
the monitor remembers the privileges to which the job is entitled as well
as the ones which are presently active. All privileges to which you are
entitled are normally activated when you log in, but you may choose to
disable any or all for safety reasons. The ENABLE and DISABLE commands,
with no arguments, turn on or off all privileges to which you are entitled.
These commands may also be used with a privilege name as argument, to
enable or disable specific privileges. If you have the PRI privilege,
you can enable specific privileges to which you are not entitled, except
that privileges which are intended only for specific programs (XGP font
compiler, service level monitor) cannot be enabled by any user.
Also, a few system programs intended for general use require special
privileges. Such programs are run by special commands (not R or RUN),
and any attempt to modify your core image while running such a program
will disable the temporary privileges involved.
.<<APPENDICES -- PP. 43-75>>
.ERROR
In the description of the CETV and ETV commands on page 44 (appendix 1),
in the last line of the paragraph numbered 1, the word ``%1of%*'' should
be ``%1if%*''. Also, delete the last sentence in the last paragraph on
that page, numbered 3. (TMPCOR files for each job are now saved separately
for each alias used by that job.) Add the following paragraph at the end
of the page:
READ
The READ command starts E in a special mode, called ⊗∪book mode,∩ used
to read long files over an extended time period. In this mode, E does
several things differently from the normal editing procedure:
1. If there is a file with the name in the READ command, extension BKP,
and PPN matching that given in the command, your ALIAS PPN, or your
login PPN (tried in that order), it is used as an RPG file to determine
where to start editing the specified file. This ``bookmark'' file is not
deleted by LOGOUT, so you can continue reading at a later session. The
file, if found, is updated when you exit from E; if there was no BKP file,
one is created on your (alias) area when you exit.
2. A READ command with no argument uses RPG (TMPCOR) files as ETV does,
but the filename used is different, so you can alternate ETV and READ
commands for different files with no confusion.
3. E does not allow you to modify the file when using book mode.

Insert the following on page 60 (appendix 2, COPY), before the
``Switches'' section:
Spooling pseudo-devices:
COPY recognizes two pseudo-device names, TPL: and PGX:, to allow
spooling of the output of some copy function to the LPT or XGP,
respectively. These device names may be used only in output terms,
and may not be used with file names. COPY creates a file on the [SPL,SYS]
directory containing the desired output, and enters a spooling request
for the appropriate device. The file is deleted after spooling. For a
standard COPY command, the effect is essentially equivalent to the
recommended SPOOL/RECOPY (see page 66); the main advantage of this
capability is for direct spooling of list terms, e.g.,
.SAMPLE
DIRECT TPL:←[*,SYS]
to spool a list of the [*,SYS] file directories. (Note: It is claimed
that these pseudo-device names stand for The Pseudo Lpt and Pseudo
Graphic Xerox-machine respectively.)

system wizard to find out.
The %3/XGP%* switch, when present, turns off the usual default
assumptions about other switches; in particular, %3/HEADING%* is
not assumed unless it is explicitly used. Spooling a file with

On page 71 (appendix 4, MAIL), insert the following paragraphs before

The MAIL command also allows the use of destinations at foreign ARPA

appendix.
If there is a file named OUTGO.MSG on your (ALIAS) disk area, MAIL will
save your message at the front of that file as well as mailing it to
the specified destinations. The distribution list will be included in
this file whether or not you use the /D switch.
If you do not know the programmer name for a user, you can use his
human being type name instead (first or last name). The name will
be found in the file of authorized users, if it is present there,
and you will be told the programmer name for that user to encourage
you to use it in the future (it's faster). If there is more than
one user with the name you give, it tells you all the relevant
programmer names and invites you to try again.

Also, replace the following paragraph with this one:
For the SEND command, there are several special forms of destination: a
job number, the device name of a terminal followed optionally by a colon,
%3*%* (sends to all logged-in users), and %3ARPA*%* (sends to all users
logged in via the ARPA network). Any of these special forms, if used,
must be the only destination specified.
.ERROR
On page 72 (appendix 4, MAIL), replace the paragraph starting ``%1The check

The check for a file directory for the specified user(s) is made before
the program asks for the message if the multi-line option is used. If there
are no valid destinations, the program exits without doing anything
else. If any destinations are valid, however, the program asks if you
wish to continue, and if so it continues as if only the valid destinations
were specified. (Exception: The list provided by /D includes all
specified destinations, valid or invalid.)# The special case of a
command like %3SEND#PRJ,PRG%* where what is meant is %3SEND#[PRJ,PRG]%*
will be caught if %3PRJ%* is not the name of a programmer, and the
(probable) desired effect is simulated with a warning message
given. Note: in the case of SEND, you will be warned if a destination
user is not logged in. Unlike the message for an invalid destination,
this warning does not require you to reconfirm your desire to continue.
After you finish typing in the message, you are again notified of
not-logged-in destinations as described earlier.

On page 73 (appendix 4, MAIL), add this to the last paragraph before the
REMIND heading, about the REENTER command:
If the original command line contained text ending with a <lf>, for the

the reminder file. If they are considered unreasonable, no reminders
will be accepted or delivered until the system has been up for at
least five minutes. (Hopefully by then an incorrect date or time
entry will have been noticed and corrected.)
.<<ARPA MAIL SECTION, P. 75>>
.ERROR
Add the following new section before the description of the RCV
command on page 75 (appendix 4).
.SKIP 1; ONCE CENTER SELECT 5
MAIL to ARPA network hosts
The MAIL command allows mail to be sent to users at other ARPA
network sites. (This service is not available to network guests, sorry.)
Since the ``@'' character was already used in MAIL to specify a file
to be read for command arguments, the character ``α%'' is used to
signify ARPA site names, e.g., %3BHα%SU-AI%* not %3BH@SU-AI%*. Site names
can follow a user name, as above, or can be used alone (followed by
a space) as a ``sticky'' site:
.SAMPLE
MAIL %MIT-AI RG,TK,MINSKY,BH%SAIL,PAPERT
will send the message to RG, TK, MINSKY, and PAPERT at MIT-AI, and
to BH at SAIL. (Of course, if SAIL is used as the site name the
mail is not actually sent through the network!)
User names for foreign hosts can be of (essentially) arbitrary length.
If the name is a string of letters and digits starting with a letter,
it can simply be typed as is: %3TEITELMAN α% MAXC%* for example. (The case
of letters is preserved, in case it matters to the foreign host.) If
the user name contains characters other than letters and digits, or
starts with a digit, enclose it in quotes (%3"%*) with two quotes used to
represent a single quote if necessary. The host name cannot contain
any special characters except hyphen. Partial site names are recognized
as in our TELNET and FTP programs. Also, a decimal number may be used
instead of a host name if necessary.
If the destination list in a MAIL command includes PPNs at SAIL (which
must be enclosed in square brackets), SAIL is assumed as the destination
host and should not be specified explicitly, e.g.,
.SAMPLE
MAIL %AI [1,BH],TK
mails to TK at MIT-AI and [1,BH] at SAIL. To mail to a PPN somewhere
else, you must say, e.g.:
.SAMPLE
MAIL "[N900AR00]"%CMU
The outcome of an attempt to send network mail is reported to you, in
a format somewhat like SNDMSG in TENEX. The possible outcomes are
.SKIP 1; BEGIN SELECT 3 VERBATIM
USER at SITE -- ok
USER at SITE -- refused
USER at SITE -- queued
USER at SITE -- failed
.END
The first case means that the mail was successfully sent. The second
means that the network connection was made successfully but the MAIL
command was rejected, possibly because there is no such user at that
host.
.APART
Network mail will be queued if it cannot be sent when
you make the request (remote host down, etc.) The mail is queued via
the REMIND phantom. The status report from the MAIL command is ``queued''.
The mail will be retried at three-hour intervals for three days. If
it is sent successfully, or if the three days run out and the request
is deleted, you will receive a status report from the REMIND phantom,
in the form of a reminder from yourself saying
.SAMPLE
ARPA network mail to USER at SITE -- ok
if successful, or
.SAMPLE
ARPA network mail to USER at SITE -- expired
if not. The date and time in the header of this status report will be
the time when the message is actually sent successfully (or deleted).
The date and time in the header of the message sent to the remote site
is the time when you originally tried to send the message.
It is also possible to get a status report saying
.SAMPLE
ARPA network mail to USER at SITE -- refused
if the connection to the remote host is made but the host refuses the
mail. This status report will also include any error message returned
to us by the remote host.
If a message which was typed in (i.e., not from a @FILE construction)
returns either a queued or a failed response, the text of the message
is saved in a file FAILED.TXT in your (alias) directory. This should
not be necessary for queued mail, which will eventually be sent
automatically if possible, but is necessary for failed and reassuring
for queued. The file contains the message as typed, i.e., no header
of either internal or external format, and no space added in front of
each line. If the file cannot be entered (e.g., you are aliased to a
write protected directory), nothing special is done, but if the file
is written successfully you are so informed.
The CANCEL command lists ARPA mail which you have queued and allows
you to abort the request. The listing by CANCEL contains the text
of your message and the name of the addressee, but lists his site by
number rather than by name. It also specifies the number of attempts
remaining before the request will be deleted.
It is possible to get a ``failed'' status report from a network
MAIL command if the program is unable to enter the request in the
REMIND queue, for instance because there are no job slots available
for the phantom. In this case you must try again later yourself.
(You can save the text of a long message you have typed in by giving
the monitor REENTER command after MAIL exits and redirecting the
mail to yourself.)
Usually if the mail is refused, and possibly otherwise, the remote host
will send us error messages intended to be helpful to you. If any such
messages are received which are not part of the normal MAIL sequence,
they are typed out along with the status report. Thus you can hopefully
figure out why the mail was refused.
Mail to foreign hosts is prefixed with a TENEX-ish header including your
real name, if known to the system, and your net address (%3PRG @ SU-AI%*).
Thus recipients should be able to figure out how to reply.
Distribution list files as in %3MAIL @FILE%* can, naturally, include
network destinations. The /D switch, which includes the list of
addressees in the message, includes network addressees, as typed
(e.g., with abbreviated site names if that's what you typed). The
message header as sent to each net addressee has his site name
in full, with his user ID as you typed it.
