I'm new to iMail, and I'm interested in setting up the SQL Server external
database option. It doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have info on how to
do this? Is anyone doing it successfully? Where's the script that creates
the tables? Their support department seems unable to help me with it, which
makes me wonder if it really works... or is worth it. Thanks.
Brian
