CONN: Guest Access to the MACGATE Volume Not Recommended |
Q109254
If the network connection to the Microsoft Mail for PC Networks postoffice
volume is broken, the Microsoft Mail Connection gateway tries to
reestablish the connection during the next gateway cycle. If the file
server and the Mail for PC Networks postoffice volume are available, you
are prompted to type in your password. After you do so, the Postoffice
volume reappears on the Desktop and the gateway continues to deliver mail.
Configuring Guest access to the Mail for PC Networks postoffice volume
allows the gateway to remount the volume automatically without prompting
for a password, but compromises the security of the postoffice. Macintosh
users can mount the postoffice and view confidential information such as
the Mail administrator's name and password stored in the MACGATE.INI file.
