PC DirSync: FFAPI ProxyNet/ProxyPO Not Included in Import PSS ID Number: Q117380 Article last modified on 08-30-1994

3.00 3.20

MS-DOS

= SYMPTOMS =

If an administrator to a new Mail for PC Networks postoffice requests an import (by selecting Admin, Config, Dir-Sync, Requestor, Import) from the server running directory synchronization (Dir-Sync), the new postoffice will not receive the ProxyNet/ProxyPO names if the Dir-Sync server is also the Mail Connection 3.2 gateway postoffice.

= CAUSE =

This problem occurs because the ProxyNet/ProxyPO is a FFAPI postoffice. The Dir-Sync server will only send Mail for PC Networks network/postoffice addresses, and therefore, it does not incorporate those addresses into the import request.

= RESOLUTION =

This problem does not occur if the Mail Connection 3.2 gateway is installed on a requestor postoffice.

= STATUS =

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in versions 3.0 and 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks. This problem was corrected in version 3.2a.
