Last reviewed: May 28, 1996
Article ID: Q136514

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, versions 3.2, 3.2a, and 3.5

SYMPTOMS

When you import a file into a Mail postoffice, you may get the following error message:

   Fatal error 54 Server name could not be accessed.

RESOLUTION

Remove the -c IMPORT.EXE command line option.

The -c option will try to create new postoffices. However, it needs to know about an existing Directory Synchronization (Dir-Sync) server, and if this has not been defined, it will give the above error.

For additional information, please refer to the "Administrator's Guide," Appendix A, page 319 for version 3.2 or page 320 for version 3.5 Microsoft Mail for PC Networks.
