Creating a MAPI Profile with PROFINST

    To create a MAPI profile with PROFINST

1. Create an object in the directory for the service using a utility such as MBINST or GWINST. See MBINST: Installing a Mailbox Agent and GWINST: Installing a Mail-Gateway Object.
2. Install the server application as a service of Windows NT Server. See SERVINST: Installing a Service.
3. To install the profile for the sample mailbox agent, type the following command all on one line:

   PROFINST /SERVICE=MB1 /NAME=MB1 /TYPE=AGENT

   In this example, a profile is created for a mailbox agent called MB1. The value of /SERVICE is the name assigned when the mailbox agent service was installed. The value for /NAME can be the Display-Name of the server application's directory object, or any name you choose.

4. To install the profile for a gateway whose service name is GW1, type the following command all on one line :

   PROFINST /SERVICE=GW1 /NAME=GW1 /TYPE=GATEWAY

If the mailbox agent is to use an extension DLL, create a directory and copy the extension DLL into the directory. Install the DLL using the EXTNINST sample application. See EXTNINST: Installing an Administrator Extension.
