Article ID: 121916

APPLIES TO

- Microsoft Mail Connection 1.0b

This article was previously published under Q121916

## SYMPTOMS

Attempting to launch version 1.0b of the Microsoft Mail Connection MACGATE.EXE program when the administrative mailbox name on the User = line in the MSGATE.INI file is followed by one or spaces will result in an error similar to the following:
2 - Cannot verify logon user/admin ID. Authorization failure.
Bad parameter value. (110): 158
exiting on 06-15-94 06:25:53 with status 158 (118)

## RESOLUTION

Edit the MSGATE.INI file to remove the trailing space(s). A trailing space will not show up on a visual inspection of the MSGATE.INI file so you should double check this when editing the file.

## MORE INFORMATION

The above error can also result from using an invalid or non-administrator mailbox name on the User = line of the MSGATE.INI or from attempting to access a postoffice where the Enhanced Security feature is installed.
