3COM: DocErr: 3ComGateDomain Incorrectly Listed as PO1:NET1 (100026)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail Gateway to 3Com 3+Mail 1.0

This article was previously published under Q100026

SUMMARY

The documentation for version 1.00 of the Microsoft Mail Gateway to 3Com 3+Mail contains an error that can disrupt gateway installation.

Page 22 of the "Administrator's Guide" states that the 3ComGateDomain entry is PO1:NET1, when it would more commonly be entered as MSMAIL:MS, as follows:

3ComGateDomain=MSMAIL:MS

Although PO1:NET1 is a legal 3+ name and may work, it is an unlikely name for a new 3+Mail domain.

In keeping with the example on page 19, the new domain for the example on page 22 is MSMAIL and the original organization is MS, so the entry should be MSMAIL:MS. This would log the computer on to the 3Com XNS Name/Mail service as:

_GATEWAY:MSMAIL:MS.
