MOVE - copy the current message into another mail file, and delete...
Usage: MOVE [/type] filename
Unless specified, type is "/mbox".
Please note that MOVE acts on the "current message" in your mailfile, and
-NOT- on the message you have just written. If you are REPLYing, the
"current message" is the one you are replying to. To save the message
you are writing, see help for SAVE-DRAFT or FCC.
The MOVE command copies the message to another mail file, and deletes
it in the current mail file (compare to COPY).
If the mail file named exists, MOVE adds a copy of the message to the end
of the file. If the mail file does not exist, MOVE creates it, unless
the variable auto-create-files is set to NO. If a directory is not
specified with the filename, MOVE assumes the MAIL-DIRECTORY, which by
default is your home directory.
If a type is not specified, /mbox is used for new files and the existing
type is retained for existing files. Use the type /mbox unless you also
use another mail system that needs another format. /babyl and /mtxt
are the other types.
Example:
Send>move oldmail #copies to a file named oldmail
