- EXIT - leave MM; suspend the process and expunge deleted messages
-
- Usage: EXIT
-
- The EXIT command expunges deleted messages, rewrites the current mail
- file if it was modified, suspends the MM process, and returns you to
- the shell. EXIT therefore is the same as EXPUNGE and QUIT combined.
-
- Deleted messages are those you mark for deletion with the DELETE or
- MOVE commands. They are still in the mail file until you remove
- them permanently with the EXPUNGE or EXIT commands.
-
- The variable SUSPEND-ON-EXIT controls whether EXIT suspends MM.
-
- There are three ways to leave MM. The defaults are:
- EXIT suspends MM expunges deleted messages
- QUIT suspends MM does not expunge
- BYE kills MM asks whether to expunge
