To retrieve messages that were sent to you by other users or by the system operator, use the LISTBC command. Messages from other users appear as mail, while messages from the operator appear as notices. The LISTBC command retrieves both mail and notices from the data set where they are stored.

By default, mail and notices are stored in the broadcast data set. However, if your installation uses individual user logs, mail messages are stored in the user log but notices are still stored in the broadcast data set.

If your installation uses security labels and security checking, the LISTBC command may be limited in what it can display for you. LISTBC does not display a stored message unless the security label you are logged on with is equal to or greater than the message's security label. You have the option of logging off and logging back on with a higher security label to view any additional messages.

If you are not authorized to use a security label that is sufficient to receive the stored message, the LISTBC command deletes the message from your user log, and you will never receive it. In this case, neither you nor the sender of the message is informed by the system that the message has been deleted.
