Normally when you send a file, the disposition (what to do with the file
when it arrives) is "store it on the disk". However, Kermit can also send
files with other dispositions, like "print", "send as e-mail", "submit as
a batch job", etc. If the receiver does not support the indicated
disposition, or cannot handle the specifics (e.g. an invalid printer name
was given for a print job), it refuses the file with reason: disposition.
