A drive mapping is only available to the user account that established the mapping. If you ask PDFing to copy files to another drive name and the specified drive is mapped on to another system, then the mapping must be available to the user account running PDFing. Because the default log-on for the PDFing service is the “system account”, the service will not be able to find any mapped drives. If you want to continue using “mapped” drives, then you can change the PDFingMailer service log-on account using the “services” control-panel applet. However, the best solution is to use the Microsoft UNC naming convention, rather than drive:directory naming.
