Environment

Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP
Novell GroupWise 7.0 Service Pack 1
Novell NetWare 6.5 Support Pack 5

Situation

In GroupWise 6.5 when you use the "Copy Document" feature, it copies the document to the same folder you invoke the copy from. Now in GroupWise 7.0.1 it sends it to the mailbox folder. Because the user base has expected it to be in the same local folder the are currently in the don't know where to find the document. If they have lots of messages in the mailbox folder it can be difficult to find.

Resolution

This issue has been duplicated by GroupWise Support and development has been notified if the problem. Only workaround in GroupWise 7.0.1 is to look in the mailbox folder or use the Find feature to locate the document.
