Mac Wkst: Password Verification/Offline Operation (87156)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks 3.1
This article was previously published under Q87156

SUMMARY

If offline operation is invoked in version 3.1 of Microsoft Mail for the Macintosh, a password is required by the workstation. Provided a local file for the designated user exists, the user-entered password is checked against the password contained in that local file. The local file is created if the offline operation preference has been selected and at least one login with the server has occurred.

If the password matches, offline operation begins. If the password does not match, a dialog box is displayed allowing the user to attempt a connection to the server.
