5.6 Sample MailDrop Session - MailDrop SYSOP's Point of View
Here is a transcription of the entire session described in the previous section, exactly as it
would appear to the MailDrop's operator (SYSOP). We're assuming that the MDMON com-
mand is set to ON.
When MDMON is ON, you have the ability to supervise the activities of any station logged on
to your MailDrop and – if needed – take any corrective action.
