If you can export your userbase to a comma delimited file you can import it into Outlook.  This is maintenance intensive as updates must be pulled to the client regularly, but it works...

 

NT - do it from the command line with net users > file then clean it up

Access dB - just put the fields you want for Outlook in a query that outputs to a *.cdf (comma delimited file)

IMAIL dB - check the support site for utilities, they have one that will harvest usernames...

Subject: [IMail Forum] Is LDAP the only way...

Is LDAP the only way to generate a post office address list?

I currently have Imail set to use my NT user database, which has 300 users.
If I set Imail to use an external database, is there a way to connect
Outlook or Outlook express to the database to pull a list of users?

I haven't been able to find any useful info in the knowledge base and tech
support hasn't helped any yet.  If anyone has any solutions, or can pass
along any info on how they  got around this issue, it would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
