NAME
       faxrm - remove fax jobs queued by faxspool(1)

SYNOPSIS
       faxrm [-i] [job-ids...]

DESCRIPTION
       Remove job(s) from the fax queue set up by faxspool(1).

       faxrm  removes  queued fax jobs.  Call with a list of job-
       IDs to remove specific jobs.  Call with no job IDs  to  be
       asked  interactively  about  all  jobs  you own (if run by
       root, all jobs).  For job-id, use the strings returned  by
       faxq(1)  (e.g.  F000015.679),  without the ``/JOB'' exten-
       tion.

       If you do not have write permissions to the fax  directory
       and to the JOB file, you are not allowed to remove the fax
       job -- most likely, you are not the owner.  Only  root  is
       permitted to remove another user's faxes.

       If  the  job  is locked (most likely because sendfax(8) is
       active sending it), faxrm doesn't attempt  to  remove  it.
       Instead, it prints a warning message on stderr and goes on
       to the next job.

EXAMPLES
       faxrm F000005.12345 F000033.5432

OPTIONS
       -i     (interactive mode) Tells faxrm to ask for confirma-
              tion before removing the job (UNIMPLEMENTED).

BUGS
       faxrm doesn't return diagnostic exit codes yet.
