PC Adm: Doc Err: After Completing Task Import (112204)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.0
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.2
This article was previously published under Q112204 SUMMARY
On page 283 of the version 3.0 Microsoft Mail for PC Networks
"Administrator[ASCII 146]s Guide" and on page 322 of the version 3.2 "Administrator's
Guide," it states that after the Import utility completes a task it will
display MS-DOS errorlevel codes. This is misleading; the codes are not
visible to the user.
MORE INFORMATION
The documentation does not explicitly state that the Import utility does
not generate external errorlevel codes, but rather internal errorlevel
codes. The Import utility will generate various MS-DOS internal errorlevel
codes when it participates in directory synchronization (Dir-Sync).
These codes are typically received and processed by DISPATCH.EXE, which is
responsible for calling and governing the automatic Dir-Sync process.
The IMPORT utility itself incorporates its own error codes to be received
and processed by DISPATCH.EXE during the automated Dir-Sync process. Mail
administrators attempting to employ any fault tolerance schemes dependent
on these implied external errorlevel codes will unlikely be able to do so.
