The command can be canceled by entering
printed:

ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DO THIS? Y
@
Enter Y to abort the message purge. If the message purge is aborted, all messages that have already been
queued for deletion are deleted.
MPURGE Command for Message-by-Message Use
To delete a message from one mailbox, at the @ prompt, enter:
MPURGE x z
In this command, x is the message header number and z is the mailbox number.
Before checking whether the message is actually present in the mailbox, the Octel 200/300 requests
confirmation before deleting a message from the mailbox. For example, when a message is to be deleted
from one mailbox, the message server responds with the following:
DELETE MESSAGE 5001 FROM MAILBOX 2022
ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DO THIS? Y
@
.
If an original recipient has forwarded the message, the forwarded instance of the message is not
deleted with the MPURGE x y command. However, if a message is deleted from every mailbox
by the MPURGE x command, the message, but not the forwarding comments, is blocked and
cannot play.
If the message should be restricted from all delivery, two options for removing the message are available:
Use MPURGE to delete the message from all mailboxes. If the message server is large, this could take
-
some time. The message could be heard by some users before the command to delete it from their
mailboxes is issued.
Do an MBLOCK and then a single-mailbox MPURGE for each mailbox to which the message was sent.
-
If the message should go to some of the originally addressed mailboxes, then the options are as follows:
Use MPURGE to delete the message from all mailboxes, and then create a new message with the
-
appropriate information. Send the message to the desired mailbox addresses.
Use a single-mailbox MPURGE for each mailbox that should not receive the message. If any of these
-
mailboxes are configured for Auto-Copy, perform the message purge from the Auto-Copy target.
Forwarded messages and network messages are not deleted.
