<P>
Following is a list of return codes from all official mbse programs and
utilities. These codes can be used in scripts. If a program exits normally, the
return code is 0. If a program exits by a signal, the return code is the signal
number. This means if you kill a running program with a SIGTERM, the programs
exits with the SIGTERM error number. On most platforms this is 15. These
errorcodes are for the most part the same on all *nix platforms but because of
some small differences I cannot list these here. Just do a <b>kill -l</b> to see
a list of errors for your own platform.<br>
Here is the list of other return codes:
<OL start="100">
<LI>Commandline error
<LI>Configuration error
<LI>Initialisation error
<LI>A full disk partition
<LI>UPS alarm detected
<LI>No valid recipients
<LI>Execute external program failed
<LI>Set tty failed
<LI>File transfer error
<LI>File attach failed
<LI>Can't lock program, retry later
<LI>Node not in nodelist
<LI>Node may not be called
<LI>Can't make connection
<LI>Can't open tty port
<LI>Node is locked
<LI>Node IP address not found
<LI>Unknow session type
<LI>Not Zone Mail Hour
<LI>Modem error
<LI>No modemport available
<LI>Session error (password)
<LI>EMSI session error
<LI>FTSC session error
<LI>WaZoo session error
<LI>YooHoo session error
<LI>Outbound scan error
<LI>Can't make poll
<LI>File request error
<LI>Error processing nodediff
<LI>Virus found
<LI>General error
<LI>Timeout error
</OL>
<P>
The mailer can also return the following error codes:
<OL start="201">
<LI>TTY general error
<LI>TTY timeout
<LI>TTY EndOfFile
<LI>TTY Hangup
<LI>TTY Empty
</OL>
<P>
When an external program is run, a mbse program can exit with return code 256 +
the return code of the external program. So if the external program exits with
error code 7, the code returned by the mbse program is 263.
