SYMPTOMS
========

On page 129 of the Microsoft Mail Gateway X.400 "Administrator's Guide," the
steps for extracting the MAPTBL.OUT file to ASCII are incorrect.

If you follow the steps in the section "To modify the customized address maps
file," you will get the following error message for step 1:

  Bad command or Filename

RESOLUTION
==========

To avoid getting the above error message, include the full path to the
X400DMAP.EXE file.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The correct procedure for extracting the MAPTBL.OUT file to ASCII is as
follows:

1. Change to the X400 subdirectory of your MAILDATA directory.

2. Copy MAPTBL.OUT to MAPOUT.OLD.

3. Type the following:

  " <path>X400dmap > filename " (without the quotation marks)

  where <path> is the path to the executable X400DMAP.EXE, and filename is
  the name of the ASCII file. Do not name it MAPTBL.OUT.

4. Edit the ASCII file, and save the changes.

5. Copy and/or Move the ASCII file to the directory where X400CMAP.EXE resides.

6. Type the following:

  NOTE: When you execute X400CMAP.EXE, it overwrites the existing customized
  address maps file. As a result, all existing customized address maps are
  lost.

  " X400CMAP ADMIN -PPASSWORD -F<filename> -D<drive> " (without the
  quotation marks)

Additional information on X400CMAP.EXE and X400DMAP.EXE can be found in the
Microsoft Mail Gateway X.400 "Administrator's Guide," Appendix B. Also, more
information about X400 address mapping is in Chapter 6 of the "Administrator's
Guide."
