If you to convert all mailfiles in a certain directory with a certain template to a new template you can do this with the convert command:

load convert -u mail/a*.nsf oldtempl mail6.ntf

However, we have a lot of users with no template at all specified. Is there a way to select all mail files starting with an ‘a’ without an inherited template specified ? Or is the only way to do this to create a text file containing all these users ?

This will all templates to be replaced, so also if I have a mailfile with a template called oldtemplkeep for example, while I just want to set a template on the mail file, which don’t use a template yet.

Write an agent to run through all nsf files in a directory, and if they have no template name listed, give them a new oneNow you can set one of your templates to be that same name and run the design refresh task
