System name:		e40-008-7
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.1H (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
Use Emacs while an OLC answered my question.

What's wrong:
The "authenticated messages" mess up the screen.  Note I was dialed
up on a nongraphics terminal.

What should have happened:
Not sure, but either Emacs or the message system should have handled
it more gracefully.  If you ask several questions and try to work between
replies, it gets really annoying.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
