Re: [vcf-midatlantic] clearing the queue in VMS 5.2 (or thereabouts)

Here is the output, note *MISSING* is the name I gave the directory by accident when I installed MULTINET, I don't think other than the name it's an issue, but I thought I'd mention.

I am being conservative about making any changes to this system this close to VCF East, but maybe we can talk about cleaning up the configs on Sat or Sunday if you have time.
$ SHOW QUEUE/FULL SMTP_COBUCK Server queue SMTP_COBUCK, busy, on COBUCK::, mounted form DEFAULT /BASE_PRIORITY=4 /DEFAULT=(FEED,FORM=DEFAULT) /OWNER=[SYSTEM] /PROCESSOR=MULTINET_SMTP_SYMBIONT /PROTECTION=(S:RWE,O:RWD,G:R,W:R)

Saturday, with any luck and cooperating weather, I'm hoping to launch a NAR certification rocket, so I won't be at InfoAge. If you'll be there early on Friday, I'll help you clean it up. I was planning to attent VCF on Sunday. If you're willing then, I'm game. In the interim, you can delete the entries in the queue. I'm confident that whatever messages may be in the queue are/were not message you intended to be sent. ;)

These were bolded my me for emphasis. Your email software converted to * characters. If you seen an asterisk around something, assume this is your email program converting for you. you must have a text email. b
