Resending or canceling a pending message

When a message has been sent requesting an asynchronous MDN, its initial Status is Pending. It will remain in this status until either the asynchronous MDN is returned or the values of the Async Timeout and Async Resends have been exhausted. See Specifying Local Listener advanced properties.

You can resend or cancel MDN entries with a status of Pending.

  1. Right-click the message you want to resend or cancel.
  2. Choose one of the following:
    • Resend Now - resend the message to your trading partner. This can only be done before the asynchronous timeout has expired.
    • Cancel - remove the associated files in the AS2\unsent folder, change the status of the message to User Cancelled, and stop any additional resend attempts. Use this option when it is clear that the asynchronous MDN will not be returned.
