14.1.11 faxrm

Syntax: faxrm [-all queue] [-to date] ID [ID [ID ...]]

Used to cancel a fax that is in a queue for outgoing faxes. Furthermore, you can mark sent and faulty faxes that have been removed to avoid having a mass of old faxes when you look through your queues. However, the statistics are kept.

Parameters:

 

-all queue

Indicates that all the faxes in the queue indicated

 

should be cancelled.

-to date

Used in combination with -all and indicates that only

 

faxes up to and including a certain date should be

 

removed.

-v

Shows the program version and syntax.

 

You find out the ID of a fax by using the command

 

faxq. Several faxes can be cancelled at the same time

 

by giving several IDs separated by a space.
