GroupWise 7 Async Gateway Installation and Administration Guide
Novell Confidential Manual (ENU) 21 December 2004
When a user sends a message, GroupWise checks the address to see if a customized addressing
rule applies to its syntax. If no rule exists, the GroupWise client validates the first element in the
address syntax. If the address contains only the object ID, the client checks the Address Book to
verify that the object is associated with a legitimate domain and post office before handing it to the
local MTA to send it on to the associated domain. If the object does not exist in the Address Book,
or if the domain or post office is not legitimately associated, GroupWise cannot send the message.

Sending to the Same GroupWise System
The Async Gateway connects GroupWise users whose domains are not otherwise physically
connected. If the Async Gateway is used to connect domains to make them part of the same
GroupWise system, separate Async Gateways must be installed at the respective domains.
GroupWise can then use either an explicit address or a gateway link to establish communication
between the domains.
Sending to a Remote GroupWise User
The Async Gateway allows a remote GroupWise Windows client user to exchange information
with a Master Mailbox. If proper links are made between the domains in the GroupWise system,
the Address Book data should be correct and current.
The Remote user’s Address Book synchronizes with the GroupWise Address Book when the
Remote user dials in to send or receive information. As messages to remote GroupWise users
require no special addressing, no configuration for addressing is necessary. For more information,
see
“Supporting GroupWise Windows Client Users in Remote Mode” on page 70 .
Sending to a Different GroupWise System
Users on different GroupWise systems can send messages to each other if the Async Gateway has
been installed and configured with a domain connection defined on the domains of each system.
This configuration provides the minimum information needed for an async connection. With this
minimum configuration in place, you can send a test message through the gateway by using an
explicit address to determine whether all of the network links and the modem connections are
working properly.
Creating a Customized Addressing Rule
A customized addressing rule allows you to establish a prescribed syntax for users to send
messages across the Async Gateway.
