+The \fBdestroy\fR command is only useful for records in the \fBQoS\fR
+or \fBQueue\fR tables.  Records in other tables are automatically
+deleted from the database when they become unreachable from the

+to a record is sufficient for deleting the record itself.  For records
+in these tables, \fBdestroy\fR is silently ignored.  See the
