The message server requests a password when a terminal is connected to the
message server, when an already connected terminal is turned ON, or when the
modem is accessed. The password entered at that time determines the level of
access to the message server. When a task is complete, you should disconnect the
terminal from the modem or turn it OFF.This ensures that the appropriate access
level is available for the next session.
