- Microsoft Mail Gateway to SMTP, version 3.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
You may receive the following error when you install the Microsoft Mail Gateway
for SMTP Access:
Can not use indirect postoffice to forward mail
CAUSE
=====
This error occurs if you try to assign an indirect postoffice to be the gateway
postoffice during the installation process.
RESOLUTION
==========
Use the following steps to ensure that the gateway postoffice is direct to the
local postoffice:
1. Stop the installation procedure.
2. Start the Administrator program (ADMIN.EXE).
3. Select External, Admin-Modify to modify the relationship to the gateway
postoffice.
4. Quit ADMIN.EXE.
5. Install the Access component.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The network and postoffice name you specify during the access component
installation does not have to be the gateway postoffice name. It could be a
forwarding postoffice, which has a direct relationship to the gateway
postoffice. You can make a chain of direct relationships to the gateway
postoffice.
