Note:
Unlike the other central directory screens, if you want to use the
Addressee start position to reposition the displayed list, you must enter the
addressee's mail ID as a search qualifier. See
Using Start Values in the
Central Directory.
The addresses are displayed by node.
- Node
Identifies the transport service responsible for transmitting mail items to/from the address' Con-nect node.
This is the transport service node name specified when the Con-nect's transport service was initialized. For further information, see Initializing the Transport Service.
- Addressee
Full name or description of addressee.
- Mail ID
ID which uniquely identifies the address on the local Con-nect node. In the case of a Bulletin Board, this field is empty.
- Type
Type of addressee. The below abbreviations are used:
Name Con-nect user. Address Nickname. Priv.Cab Private cabinet. Publ.Cab Public cabinet. Shar.Cab Shared cabinet. Stnd.Cab Standalone cabinet. Bulletin Bulletin board. External External user. - Status
Status of address. The following abbreviations apply:
New Address has been uploaded to the central directory for the first time. Modified Address information has been modified since the initial upload. Deleted Local Con-nect administrator deleted the address either from the local node, or from the central directory via the Directory Synchronization Maintenance. Hold Address is not accessible to other participating Con-nect nodes. This means the address is uploaded to the central directory but, because it is on hold, other Con-nect nodes are unable to download the address. Once the administrator on the local node releases the address with the RL (Release) command and performs an upload, the status of the address on the central directory is changed to Modified, which permits other nodes to download the address.
You can use an address' alias as a search qualifier to quickly position the list of addresses to that address. To do so, press PF4, enter the alias in the resulting window and press ENTER.

Deleted Local Con-nect administrator deleted address from either the local node, or only from the central directory (using the directory synchronization functions). Hold Address is not accessible to other participating Con-nect nodes.

The accepted values for the synchronization status are displayed to the right in parenthesis. Enter the new status you want and press ENTER.
Note:
A status which is modified here may be overwritten with an update for
the address from the originating Con-nect node.
It is recommended that you set the status of an address to DELETED here instead of erasing the address from the list of addresses, since a record for the address will be maintained in the central directory. This means that the next time a Con-nect node uploads to the central directory, the address will be deleted from the node's address list of imported addresses and, thus, the address list is synchronized with the central directory.
To display the complete address of the addressee, press PF5.
The resulting information displayed is identical to that which is displayed when a user issues the "DISPLAY Address name" command sequence.
If the address is an external address, you can press PF4 to display additional address information required by Con-nect.

You can erase an individual address, or all addresses on the central directory directly from the "Address Data Maintenance" screen. Using this method will erase the address completely from the central directory, which means the Con-nect nodes will not be notified of the deletion with the next download and thus the address lists on the nodes are not updated.
Note:
It is recommended that you first set the status for the address(es)
on the central directory to Deleted. See
Modifying the
Status of an Address on the Central Directory. Once all
participating Con-nect nodes have performed a download and thus, updated their
address list, you can completely erase the address(es) on the central directory
as described here.
To erase an address on an individual basis, you mark the address with ER in the Cmd column and press ENTER. To erase all addresses, you press PF5. In both cases, a confirmation window is displayed, enter Y and press ENTER.

Note:
It is important to remember that PF5 erases only
the addresses displayed. That means, if you enter a selection criteria such as
FHOST in the Node column and Priv.Cab in the Type column, press
ENTER and then PF5 (erase all), only the private cabinets
uploaded from node FHOST will be deleted from the central directory.
