DOCUMENT:Q114280 12-NOV-1999 [pcmail] TITLE :PC WRmt: Selector Doesn't Allow Copy/Move Without ServerPath PRODUCT :Microsoft Mail For PC Networks PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.2 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows, version 3.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== Microsoft Mail System Selector, provided with version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows, won't let you copy the postoffice list or move your personal message file locally. CAUSE ===== Microsoft Mail for Windows looks for the Mail system database in one of three places: The location specified by the ServerPath= entry in the MSMAIL.INI file, the drive specified by the ServerDrive= entry in MSMAIL.INI, or, if neither entry exists, the current directory of drive M. However, the Mail Remote for Windows System Selector, only looks at the ServerPath= entry in the MSMAIL.INI file and does not provide the copy or move functionality if the entry is invalid or does not exist. RESOLUTION ========== Add a ServerPath= line to the [Microsoft Mail] section of your MSMAIL.INI file. Specify a drive and path (for example, M:\MAILDATA), a universal naming convention (UNC) path, or a Novell path.
