This article was previously published under Q249246



SYMPTOMS
After you upgrade the Dispatch.exe program for Microsoft Mail Multitasking MTA for Windows NT (NT MMTA) to version 3.5.23 or later, if you use DrivesUNC statements in the Dispatch.ini file and run the Dispatch program from the command line, the following error message is displayed:

Drive is either local, used or greater than lastdrive.



CAUSE
Version 3.5.23 of the Dispatch.exe program was changed to accept drive letters so that the Dispatch program and the External program can use drives from different pools of drives.



RESOLUTION
Add the drive letter or range to the following line in the Dispatch.ini file:

DrivesDynamic=

In the following example TV is the drive range, but you can use any free drive letters:

[dispatch]

DrivesDynamic=tv

Drivesunc=\\server\share

Drivesunc=\\server\share
