All options on the Databases tab are dimmed and the user database is selected by default because only the user databases are affected.User
Each user on a post office has a user database (userxxx.db where xxx is the user's file ID) located in the ofuser directory. The user database stores the user's setup information, personal groups, rules, and other information specific to the user. It also contains references to the user's messages in the message databases.Logging
To log information to a file, enter a filename. By default, the file is created in the po\wpcsout\ofs directory, where po is the post office directory.Log File
Enter a new name for the log file, or accept the default name.Verbose Logging
Produces maximum detail; however, this option creates very large log files and slows execution.Results

Select Individual Users to send each user the results that pertain to his or her GroupWise user account. The CC area is a comma-delimited field used to list additional users to receive the report. The Message button displays a text area where you can send a message.Misc
