SUMMARY

To verify which users are currently signed in to Microsoft Mail, you must use the Address Mail window. To check which users are signed in, click the Address icon in any of the Send windows, then click the Local icon. Those users currently signed in have the word "connected" enclosed in parentheses next to their names. In versions of Mail earlier than version 2.0, users who were signed in had small Macintosh computer icons next to their names.

This feature applies only to users with accounts on the server you are signed on to, and only when the Local icon has been selected. Mail cannot check whether users on other servers are signed in and cannot check for signed-in users on your server if the All icon is selected.

MORE INFORMATION

In addition to the above method, a Network Manager can check any logged-in users if the Microsoft Mail Server is running as an application. Running the Mail server in this fashion will display an "AppleShare 2.0" type of window that displays users who are currently logged in to the server. However, the upkeep of this window is considered low priority for the server and, therefore, the information shown in the window may be slightly out of date.
