Step-by-step guide

 Create a Trusted Application

For CloudM Migrate to impersonate users and read their inbox without their password a Novell GroupWise Trusted Application must be created. Trusted Applications are used by third-party programs in order to securely log into Post Office Agents (POAs) in order to access GroupWise mailboxes. 

"For GroupWise 2014, follow this guide to create Trusted Application: 

https://www.novell.com/ documentation/groupwise2014r2/ gw2014_guide_admin/data/adm_ sys_tools_trusted_ applications.html  

For other GroupWise versions, use this guide:

If necessary, verify that the trusted application has been created within the GroupWise system then in ConsoleOne, navigate to ‘Tools->GroupWise System Operations->Trusted Applications’, where a list of trusted applications will be displayed.

To delete a trusted application all fields must be completed, including the value of the old trusted application key, and then click ‘Delete’. Trusted applications can also be deleted using the Novell Administration tools.
