Process utility

List currently executing MTA processes and jobs.

Syntax
imsimta process

Parameters
None.

Description
Show current MTA processes. Normally on a regular MTA system, the Dispatcher and  Job Controller should always be present;  typically some  SMTP and  SMTP SUBMIT server processes are present;  and additional  processes may be present if messages are currently being processed, or  if certain additional MTA components are in use. On an LMTP back end Message Store system, the Dispatcher should always be present, and  typically one or more  LMTP server processes are present.
