SYMPTOMS
========

When you attempt to use the InterOrg Synchronization tool to update the contents
of each organization's directory, users with the same alias in each directory
may not get added to the Import container.

RESOLUTION
==========

A new version of the InterOrg Synchronization tool is now available. The tool
allows multiple Microsoft Exchange Server organizations to synchronize the
contents of their directories. To obtain this feature immediately, contact
Microsoft Product Support Services. For a complete list of Microsoft Product
Support Services phone numbers and information on support costs, please go to

STATUS
======

The InterOrg Synchronization tool is available in the Microsoft BackOffice
Resource Kit (BORK), Second Edition. Microsoft Product Support Services will use
commercially reasonable efforts to support this product. Please do not confuse
the InterOrg Synchronization tool with the InterOrg Replication utility for
public folders, which is available on the Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 Service
Pack 2 CD.
