B. You can perform a Global Kill on a group of messages which are under the
same callsign. To perform this two (2) conditions must be met:
i. All messages must have been read and the message flag must be a Y.
ii. The callsign contained in the MYMcall must be the same as the callsign in
the MYcall command.
If the above conditions are met then all the user must type:
K <CR>
This will go out to Mailbox, then the messages with the message flags set to Y and all of the
