CAUSE

The GFI Archiver Mailbox Folder Structure Retrieval feature will attempt to connect to the mail server defined in the Mail Servers to Archive configuration using the credentials supplied in the Mailbox Folder Structure Retrieval configuration. Should you define the IP address or NETBIOS name of the Mail Server you are trying to connect to in the Mail Servers to Archive Wizard, GFI Archiver will attempt to get the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) by requesting a reverse DNS lookup for the IP address or NETBIOS name defined. If the DNS server is unable to resolve the reverse lookup the error message discussed above is shown.
