Actually Bill.....128 is the web only flag
;-)
Sam,
I ran into this also and what I
found out was that I was not setting the flags in the database first. If I set
them with Imail then I still could not login as the user or send them email.
But if I set them in the database first, I could. After some playing around to
see what the number would be I came up with 130. That gives the user web
access (http://site.com:8383). How I
discovered the correct flag for the parameters was I created users in the user
admin in Imail then looked at the database for the flags that were set. Iam
using an online web site to signup users and am using hidden tags for the
flags and mail message sizes. I would give the address to you but I do not
have it yet on a production machine. I am testing and tweaking the setup
internally. I am trying to get the database to suggest a userid if the one
they chose is already in use.
Good luck and let me know how it
works for you.
Bill

Subject: [IMail Forum] External
Databases
I have been a subscriber to this forum for two days now,
and have seen some comments in regards to external databases. I posted some
messages about login errors that were due to the way I set up the external
database. Since I can deduce that external databases due work can someone
tell me if there is anything special that I might have overlooked in the
setup process. I created a blank database and an ODBC datasource. I can
connect to the database and create user accounts using the IMAIL
administrator, I can add records manually to the database and the
users will then show up in the User Administrator. I can't send mail to
them though or use web messaging to login. I have successfully implemented
the Imail database option, but would like to use the external
option.
Thanks in advance
Sam
