The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, version 3.2 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

Notification may not occur when you use the Microsoft Mail for PC Networks Micro
utility (MICRO.EXE) unless it is set up properly for the network protocol.

CAUSE
=====

If Microsoft Mail for PC Networks was installed for an IBM Network, Mail assumes
NetBIOS as the default. The Micro and Monitor utilities also assume NetBIOS as
the default. However, if Mail is installed as a Novell network, NetBIOS is not
used and Micro or Monitor may require the -x option to disable the NetBIOS
compatibility.

MORE INFORMATION
================

This is just the opposite of the MAIL.EXE program where -x is used to signify
the use of the NetBIOS protocol.

For more information about the use of command-line parameters, consult the
"Microsoft Mail for PC Networks Administrator's Guide."
