Specify an Import Filter
You can set options for filtering GroupWise directory entries
during import when importing user data from Exchange to GroupWise.
When you filter addresses, you can specify domains, post offices,
or individual recipients that you want to include or exclude from
the import container. You specify a filter using the same form as a
GroupWise address. For example,
GroupWise_domain.Post_office.Object_ID
.
In the filter, you can use the wildcard characters: an asterisk (*) and question mark (?), where an asterisk denotes any number of characters of any value, and a question mark denotes one character of any value.
The following table shows examples of filters that you might configure.
Import filter | Description |
---|---|
NewYork01.PO1.* | Imports only the recipients at post office PO1 in the NewYork01 domain. |
*.PO1.* | Import all recipients in any PO1 post office in any GroupWise domain. |
*.PO?.* | Import all recipients in any GroupWise post office that has a three-character name, where the first two characters are "PO." |
