Mailslots are not treated as a normal slot as far as NetBackup is concerned. 
You need to have an empty slot for the tape to go into before NetBackup can 
then move it into a drive or import it into the library. As a general rule of 
thumb, I will usually allocate one empty slot per mailslot in my libraries.

When I select that option, I get 
"media access port request reported that the robotic library is full:

          *** Failed to find an available slot to inject to ***"

whether or not there is any media in either of the passthrough ports.
