Q.
I'm using the GroupWise C Administrative Object API to expire and enable mailboxes. My problem is that the only way that I can enable the mailbox is to set the date in put_MailboxExpDate() to sometime in the future. This keeps the Enable property set in the ConsoleOne utility (with the future date). How can I clear this property? I tried using put_MailboxExpDate with a 0 date, but this does not work.
A.
You have to set the value to midnight 1 January 1970, which is not a zero value as it typically is for other dates in NetWare. The value you need to pass is a double, with the integer portion containing the number of days since 30/12/1899 and the fraction portion of the value represents the time of day.
