Use this property page to configure the Internet Addressing settings for this external distribution list. The settings on this page override the settings established at the external domain level (External Domain object > GroupWise tab > Internet Addressing page) or the external post office level (External Post Office object > GroupWise tab > Internet Addressing page). The Internet Addressing settings for your GroupWise system are not applied to external domains, external post offices, external resources, and external distribution lists.
Preferred Address Format
The preferred address format determines how the distribution list's address
is displayed in the GroupWise Address Book and in the To field of sent messages.
By default, the GroupWise External Distribution List object inherits its preferred address format from the domain-level or post-office-level setting. To override the inherited setting for this object, select Override, then select the preferred address format.
External Distribution List objects do not have first names and last names. If you choose an address format that includes firstname, lastname, or firstinitial, the object's ID is substituted in each instance. For example, when using the firstname.lastname@internet_domain_name format, distribution list addresses are displayed as distlistID.distlistID@internet_domain_name.
Preferred E-Mail ID
If you do not want to use one of the preferred address formats, specify an explicit
address for the distribution list name portion of the address format. The address
can be in any form as long as all characters are RFC compliant (no spaces, commas,
and so forth). The distribution list name portion must be unique within its
Internet domain.
Allowed Address Formats
The allowed address formats determine which address formats GroupWise supports
for incoming messages. GroupWise delivers a message only if the recipient's
address conforms to one of the allowed address formats.
By default, the GroupWise object inherits its allowed address formats from the system-level, domain-level, or post-office-level setting. To override the inherited setting for this object, select Override, then select the allowed address formats.
Internet Domain Name
The Internet domain name, along with the preferred address format, is used to
construct the distribution list's address included in the GroupWise Address
Book.
To override the currently-assigned Internet domain name, select Override, then select the Internet domain name you want used with this distribution list.
IMPORTANT: Entering an Internet domain name can affect the way your GroupWise system routes messages to this external distribution list. By default, GroupWise uses the link established from your system to the external distribution list's system. However, if you enter an Internet domain name that is unknown to your GroupWise system, the Internet Agent is automatically used to route messages to the distribution list. An Internet domain name is unknown to your system unless it has been defined as an Internet domain name for your system (Tools menu > GroupWise System Operations > Internet Addressing) or has been added to your system through synchronization with an external GroupWise system (Tools menu > GroupWise System Operations > External System Synchronization).
