Setting up the Users in WIG

Next, you must tell WIG about the MS Mail users. You should do this by adding a user (of type MS Mail User) for each and every MS Mail user who wishes to send and receive Internet mail. Note that a user license is required for every additional MS Mail user. The name of the MS Mail user must match exactly the users full name as specified in the MS Mail post office. For example if the user's name as specified in the MS Mail post office is Joe Bloggs, then Joe Bloggs must be specified as the user's name in the Details tab of the User dialog box for that user.

Note: If the MS Mail user's name (as entered in WIGADMIN.EXE) does not exactly match the users full name as specified in the MS Mail post office then WIG will not succeed in sending on that users Internet mail.

The Address tab of the MS Mail user's User dialog box contains the users mailbox name and Workgroup address information. The mailbox name of the MS Mail user must match exactly the user's mail box name as specified in the MS Mail post office. For example, if the users MS Mail address is MS:ACCOUNTS/PLUTO/JOHN then the mailbox name as specified in the User dialog box must be John.

Note: If the MS Mail user's mailbox name (as entered in WIGADMIN.EXE) does not exactly match the users mailbox name as specified in the MS Mail post office then WIG will not succeed in sending or receiving Internet mail for that user.
