## SYMPTOMS

The Microsoft Mail Postoffice Diagnostics Utility (PODIAG.EXE) Address & Group Check displays a "GAL Missing" error message when the utility is run on a version 2.1 postoffice. In addition, the Address & Group Preferences dialog box displays "PO addresses, PO groups, and GAL" as an option under the Depth of Check section, regardless of the version of the postoffice.

## STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.2 of the Microsoft Mail Postoffice Diagnostics Utility. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

## MORE INFORMATION

The Global Address List (GAL) was an additional feature added in version 3.0 and later postoffices and did not exist in Microsoft Mail version 2.1.
