SYMPTOMSWhen you use the External Mail program (EXTERNAL.EXE) to transfer mail between postoffices that are connected via modem, the External Mail program may not dial out to pick up mail from the other postoffice even though it is configured for twoway transfer and there is mail waiting to be picked up. CAUSEThere is no outbound mail. The External Mail program only dials out if there is outbound mail. RESOLUTION
This is a limitation of the External Mail program. The messages waiting at
the other postoffice will be transferred to the destination if the External
Mail program at the other postoffice is permitted to transmit messages.
However, when there are dial-up restrictions, you can create outbound mail
messages so External will dial out and pick up waiting messages. You can do
this by using the AUTOSEND MAPI application that is provided in the
SAMPLE.EXE file included with the MAPI.DLL update, MAPIUPD.EXE.
