Ordinarily, PMDF will deliver your new mail messages to your VMS MAIL mailbox. There are three common exceptions to this: (1) you use ALL-IN-1 MAIL or A1MAIL, (2) you have a PMDF MessageStore or PMDF popstore account, or (3) you have your mail forwarded elsewhere. ALL-IN-1 and A1MAIL users should refer to Section 2.2; PMDF MessageStore or PMDF popstore users should refer to Chapter 10; and in the case of forwarding, (3), your mail will be forwarded as per your forwarding instructions (see Section 1.1.7).

The DELIVER facility, which can be used to automatically screen your incoming mail messages, is described in Chapter 5.
