The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail Software Development Kit File Format Application Programming Interface (FFAPI), versions 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2
  • Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, versions 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2

SYMPTOMS

With versions 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, if you use the Import program (IMPORT.EXE) to update a user's template information on a FFAPI network/postoffice address list but the template information is not included, the default template information is used.

CAUSE

When you use the Import command to modify the user information, the fields that are not updated are overwritten with the default information.

RESOLUTION

Include template information for each entry in the import file in which you do not want default template information.
