The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail Gateway to X.400 3.2
This article was previously published under Q135029

SYMPTOMS

On page 129 of the Microsoft Mail Gateway X.400 "Administrator's Guide," the steps for extracting the MAPTBL.OUT file to ASCII are incorrect.

If you follow the steps in the section "To modify the customized address maps file," you will get the following error message for step 1:
Bad command or Filename

RESOLUTION

To avoid getting the above error message, include the full path to the X400DMAP.EXE file.

MORE INFORMATION

The correct procedure for extracting the MAPTBL.OUT file to ASCII is as follows:

  1. Change to the X400 subdirectory of your MAILDATA directory.
  2. Copy MAPTBL.OUT to MAPOUT.OLD.
  3. Type the following:

    <path>X400dmap > filename

    where <path> is the path to the executable X400DMAP.EXE, and filename is the name of the ASCII file. Do not name it MAPTBL.OUT.
  4. Edit the ASCII file, and save the changes.
  5. Copy and/or Move the ASCII file to the directory where X400CMAP.EXE resides.
  6. Type the following:

    NOTE: When you execute X400CMAP.EXE, it overwrites the existing customized address maps file. As a result, all existing customized address maps are lost.

    X400CMAP ADMIN -PPASSWORD -F<filename> -D<drive>

Additional information on X400CMAP.EXE and X400DMAP.EXE can be found in the Microsoft Mail Gateway X.400 "Administrator's Guide," Appendix B. Also, more information about X400 address mapping is in Chapter 6 of the "Administrator's Guide."
