their business cards.)
Addresses do not change as users are moved.
Disadvantages
When you first enable this address format, you might have duplicate user IDs in your
GroupWise system. However, in the future, ConsoleOne
user IDs within the same Internet domain name. The same user ID can be used in different
Internet domains without problem.
firstname.lastname@internet_domain_name
Advantages
Addresses are intuitive and easy to remember.
Addresses do not change as users are moved.
Disadvantages
When you first enable this address format, you might have duplicate first and last names in
your GroupWise system. However, in the future, ConsoleOne prevents you from creating users
with the same first and last names within the same Internet domain name. The same first name
and last name combination can be used in different Internet domains without problem.
The probability of conflicts increases if any user's first and last names match any GroupWise
domain or post office name, if any two users have the same first and last names, or if any two
users have the opposite first and last names (such as James Dean and Dean James).
