CONN: MACGATE.EXE Supports -MD Command-Line Option (109701)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail Connection for PC and AppleTalk Networks 3.2
This article was previously published under Q109701 SUMMARY
Version 3.2 of the Microsoft Mail Connection for PC and AppleTalk Networks
includes the undocumented switch -MD to disable its Mailer component. The
Mailer component distributes incoming messages on a Microsoft Mail for PC
Networks postoffice.
NOTE: This option can be used only if another process that also contains
the Mailer code is not disabled and is running against the same Microsoft
Mail postoffice. This other process can be the External Mail program
(EXTERNAL.EXE) or any other gateway.
MORE INFORMATION
Mailer is the Mail Connection gateway component that distributes a piece
of mail to a user's mailbag or to the outgoing queue of an externally
defined postoffice. The Mailer contains code that is shared among all
gateways and the External Mail program executable files. If this component
were not shared, all gateways would require the External Mail program to be
running against the same postoffice as well.
