MFJ-1278B MULTI-MODE OPERATIONAL COMMANDS
MAILBOX ON/OFF Mode: Packet Default: ON
Parameters:
ON Brings the Packet mailbox on-line.
OFF Takes the Packet mailbox off-line.
When the MAILBOX command is set to ON, all of the mailbox functions are active. Note
that the MAILBOX is a single-user device; therefore, if you wish to use the MAILBOX it is
necessary for you to set USER 1 and select Stream A. Note that these are the default settings
and selections, respectively. However, as we mentioned in Chapter 5, the Mailbox has been
significantly improved. For more extensive information on the new improved Mailbox,
please refer to Chapter 5.
The Pactor Mailbox command does not need to be ON for the Packet mailbox to function.
If you wish to have your messages time and date stamped, then make sure that DAYTIME is
set with the correct time or else each message entered without DAYTIME will not be shown.
A basic explaination of the Mailbox commands are as follows:
K Kills all messages addressed to you, depending on the setting of the Y flag.
K ## Kills the message in slot nn, depending of the setting of the Y flag. Remote users
may only kill message addressed to them or originated by them. The local SYSOP,
however, can kill all messages.
L Lists the all messages in Mailbox. Listed messages will contain the slot number,
originator, destination, and subject field of all currently used slots.
R Allows you to Read only the messages which are addressed to you.
R ## Allows Reading of a message in a particular slot number.
S call Lets you Send a message to the specified callsign. "Call" must be a callsign valid
under the same format as the MYCALL, CONNECT and other callsign commands.
SP call Lets you Send a personal message to the specified callsign. This is a private message
which can only be read by the originating station, the station which it is addressed to
and the mailbox SYSOP.
