Changing the Postoffice Administrator

The postoffice administrator is tied to a specific account that is created when the postoffice is created. To change the postoffice administrator, the person who is using that account must abandon it, and the new administrator must take it over. The two persons involved in the exchange must take their Mail folders and Schedule+ data with them.

To change the postoffice administrator, follow these steps:

1. The future administrator needs to complete the following tasks:
   • Sign in to Schedule+, export your appointments, archive your data, and then exit Schedule+.
   • Sign in to Mail, export your folders, and then exit and sign out of Mail.
   • Edit your Registry to include the following entries in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Mail\Custom Commands.

WGPOMgr1:REG_SZ:3.0;Mail;;13
WGPOMgr2:REG_SZ:3.0;Mail;&Postoffice Manager...;14;WGPOMG32.DLL;0;;

2. The current administrator needs to complete the following tasks:
   • Sign in to Schedule+, export your appointments, archive your data, and then exit Schedule+.
   • Sign in to Mail and export your folders.
   • Remove the present account of the future administrator.
   • Change the details of the postoffice administrator account (Name, Mailbox, Password, etc.) to those of the future administrator.
   • Create a new account for yourself, using the details from the old administrator account.
   • Exit and sign out of Mail.
   • Edit your Registry to remove the WGPOMgr1 and WGPOMgr2 entries from HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Mail\Custom Commands.
   • Sign in to your new Mail account and import the folders that you exported.
   • Sign in to Schedule+ and import your appointments.
3. The new administrator needs to complete the following tasks:
   • Sign in to your Mail account, which is now the postoffice administrator account, and import the folders that you exported.
   • Sign in to Schedule+ and import your appointments.
