DESCRIPTION
This option allows the recording of a queue of messages onto sequential
computer room.  It will be three weeks until the system is reconnected to
the network.  You know that a sister installation 10 miles down the road is
still on line.  You must get your payroll information to Austin.  The
messages are ready to be sent (in the queue to FOC-AUSTIN.VA.GOV).  Quick!
Mount a tape.  Use this procedure to 'transmit' the queue onto the tape.
Have the tape delivered to your sister site (keeping it away from all
magnetic fields -- those messages are no longer in the queue).  At your
sister site the tape is delivered.  They mount it and read in the messages.
The messages are queued up for FOC-AUSTIN.VA.GOV and delivered as though
they were 'relayed' through this site.  You could also have sent the tape
media.  The messages so recorded may be 'read' into another MailMan system.
directly to FOC-AUSTIN.VA.GOV where they could have been received.
The option 'Sequential Media Message Reception' is the converse process.
This option has been developed specifically for emergency transmission of
messages when the wide area network is not available.  It can also be used
for archiving.
