Use the Client Access Settings page to configure the functionality of the post office as related to GroupWise® client (user) access.
Lock Out Older GroupWise Clients
By default, the post office allows multiple versions of the GroupWise client
to access it. To see which users are accessing the post office and which client
versions they are using, you can use the Status page of the POA Web console.
The C/S Users link on the Status page displays client/server users. The Remote/Caching
link displays users who are accessing their mailboxes using Remote or Caching
mode. Release version and release date information is displayed for all users.
Minimum Client Release Version
Select this option to specify the minimum acceptable release version of the GroupWise client for users in this post office. Only client versions 6.x and later are supported for lockout.Minimum Client Release Date
Select this option to specify the minimum acceptable release date of the GroupWise client. Click the Calendar icon, set the year, month, day, and time as needed, then click OK.
You can specify the minimum version, the minimum date, or both. If you specify both minimums, any user for which both minimums are not true will be locked out of the GroupWise client.
If any users are running older GroupWise clients, they are displayed at the POA Web console in red. If any users are running equivalent or newer GroupWise clients, they are displayed in blue.
