SUMMARY
This article describes a method for copying messages stored in a folder in
version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows Mail Message File (MMF) to a
folder accessible within the Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, MS-DOS
workstation.
MORE INFORMATION
During the Windows client operation, messages stored in the MMF are not
accessible to the MS-DOS client. To copy messages stored in a folder within
the MMF to a folder accessible to the MS-DOS client, use the
following steps:
- From the Windows client, move any Inbox messages to a temporary folder
(for example, a folder named temp) that you do NOT want copied to the
MS-DOS client folder.
- Move any messages that you want copied to the MS-DOS client folder
into the Inbox.
- From the Mail menu, choose Options. Select Server. From within the
Server dialog box, select the Copy Inbox on Postoffice for Dialin
Access check box.
- From the File menu, choose Exit and Sign Out.
The following dialog box may be displayed:
Your Inbox is not completely synchronized with the postoffice.
Do you want to synchronize it before quitting?
Select the Yes button.
The Windows client will then copy the mail messages stored in the
MMF to the postoffice. These messages should now be accessible in the
Inbox of the MS-DOS client.
- Run the MS-DOS client.
NOTE: The mail messages previously copied from a folder in the MMF
to the MMFs Inbox are now available in the MS-DOS client's Inbox.
- Create a new MS-DOS client folder using the Options, Folders, Create
command (or use and existing MS-DOS client folder). Move the messages
from the MS-DOS client's Inbox to the folder using the Storage, Save
command.
