The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Mail Remote, Windows Client, version 3.2

Microsoft Mail Remote version 3.2 for Windows does not provide remote access to a gateway address list. The text below provides two methods to access the address list on a specific gateway.

The following method provides access to the address list on a SMTP, X.400, FAX, MHS, or MCI gateway. This method does not work for an Officevision, PROFS, or SNADS gateway.

   From the postoffice, copy to the data disk the .NME and .GLB
   files that have the same name as the gateway. Use the Setup
   program to install the files in the NME and GLB subdirectories of
   the <Windows_directory>\MSMAIL\MSRMT directory (by default,
   C:\WINDOWS\MSMAIL\MSRMT. Start Mail and the gateway appears in
   the address book.

With the second method, you can add *all* PROFS or SNADS users to a custom view by performing the following steps when you use the ADMIN program to create the custom view:

  1. Use the SPACE BAR to select the PROFS or SNADS gateway

  2. Press ESCAPE to select the gateway (instead of ENTER to select individual names in the gateway)

For more information about Custom Views, please refer to the documentation for the ADMIN.EXE program provided with Microsoft Mail version 3.0 for PC Networks server software.
