SYMPTOMS
GIMPORT.EXE does not simplify the administrative overhead associated with
groups spanning multiple postoffices. Every member of a group spanning
multiple postoffices MUST exist in the Postoffice Address List (POL) prior
to running GIMPORT, or you will get the following error for each user not
on the list:
User "mailbox name" not in postoffice address list. Cannot
add to group XXX.
CAUSE
One or more users in the group file that spans multiple postoffices was not
present in the POL prior to running GIMPORT.
RESOLUTION
In order for the GIMPORT process to work correctly, each External
postoffice must have all users from all other External postoffices appear
in their POL prior to running GIMPORT.EXE. GIMPORT can only create, modify,
or delete groups containing Microsoft Mail users that are present in the
POL.
NOTE: You can automatically add users to the POL by using the IMPORT.EXE
program that is included with Microsoft Mail for PC Networks.
All users included in the group file spanning multiple postoffices will
have to be manually added to each of the External Postoffice Lists prior to
executing the GIMPORT process.
