.SH NAME
qmgrDisable \- tool for emergency control of mtas
.SH SYNOPSIS
.in +.5i
.ti -.5i
qmgrDisable
\%[-h mtaname] \%[-u username] \%[-p password] \%[operations...]
.in -.5i
.SH DESCRIPTION
The 
.I qmgrDisable
tool is used to control a PP mta in emergencies.
.PP
\fIqmgrDisable\fP responds to the following flags
.TP
\-h mtaname
This flag prompts \fIqmgrDisable\fP to attempt to connect to and
control the named mta.
By default, \fIqmgrDisable\fP attempts to connect to and control an
mta running on the local machine.
.TP
\-u username
This is the username used when connecting to the mta.
If the username is not specified on the command line, \fIqmgrDisable\fP
prompts for it before attempting to connect to the mta.
.TP
\-p password
This is the password to be used with the username.
If the password is not specified on the command line, \fIqmgrDisable\fP
prompts for it before attempting to connect to the mta.
.PP
Once \fIqmgrDisable\fP has connected to the mta, it requests the mta
to execute the operations specified on the command line.
These operations are as follows:
.TP
abort
This effectively stops the mta dead.
.TP
gracefulTerminate
On receipt of this operation, the mta closes down any activity running
and then stops itself.
.TP
restart
When the mta receives this operation, it closes down all operation and
attempts to restart itself.
.TP
rereadQueue
This forces the mta to synchronise its model with the one stored on disc.
.TP
disableSubmission
On receipt of this operation, the mta does not allow any new
submissions of messages.
Note that mail will still be accepted by the submission process but
will not be loaded into the mta's model of the queue.
.TP
enableSubmission
This operation instructs the mta to allow new submissions.
The mta also invokes a rereadQueue operation.
.TP
disableAll
This operation instructs the mta to cease all activity on any channel
and disable any new activity from starting up.
.TP
enableAll
The operation instructs the mta to enable activity on channels.
