Send or Store Messages

When you send a TPX mail message, that message appears on the message recipient's terminal when the user presses an action key such as the Enter key or a PF key. If you specify that the message is to break in, the message appears on the recipient's terminal immediately, without waiting for the action key. The recipient can delete the message or save it in the mailbox.

When you store a TPX mail message, that message is stored in the recipient's mailbox. The recipient can read and delete (or save) the message only after entering the TPXMAIL session and selecting option 1, 2, or 3, to read mail messages.
