Who is this article for?

Admins who need to add a location from the commands line.

Administritive permissions are required.

The Append Location tool allows you to add locations to an existing collection file from a command line.

Locating the Append Location tool

You can find the Append Location tool in the Support folder where the Ideagen Mail Manager installation files are located.

• For per user installations: %localappdata%\Mail Manager\Program Files\Support
• For per machine installations: C:\Program Files\Mail Manager\Support

Using the Append Location tool

To add a location from the command line:

1. Navigate to the Support folder by running:
   

   CD Path\To\Support\Folder

2. Run the following command:
   

   Ideagen Mail Manager.AppendLocation.exe "Path\To\Collection.MMCollection" "Path\To\Location\To\Add" "Description Of Location"

Troubleshooting

Important: Do not use a trailing backslash (\) on the paths. This is a special escape character that treats the following character differently. If you use it before a quotation mark ("), the command will continue trying to include the next part as part of the path, which will likely cause undesired results.
