1. as per my knowledge, the M commands are the following:

-----------
M               Shows current mailbox users
MC name         Copy the current message to area/path 'name' (SYSOP only)
MC x [y,z] name Copy messages x,y and z in current area to area/path 
       'name' (SYSOP only)
ML              Shows all past users since system startup
ML n            Shows the n past users since startup
ML call         Shows when 'call' logged on last
MM name         Move the current message to area/path 'name' (SYSOP only)
MM x [y,z] name Move messages x,y and z in current area to area/path 'name'
MS              Show message and system status

Note: (i0ojj)
   1.11x6 (970314) [update]
The sysop MM and MC commands (now) accept a range of message numbers,
specified by an embedded '-', e.g., MM 5-26 junk

2. the following demonstration has been reproduced by using the 'record'
command on jnos.

3. Taking my 'sysop' area as an example, I used the MC command and
the MM command: the results in both cases had no effect on functioning
as expected, but simply gave both the same reply like when the M command
(alone) is issued.
