SUMMARY
=======

Page 31 of the "Administrator's Guide" includes an error in the formatting of
the address to send to Microsoft Mail from Da Vinci 1.x.

The section under the heading Da Vinci should read:

  To send mail to Microsoft Mail if you are using Da Vinci 2.0, use the
  extended addressing format:

  USER@GATEWAY {NETWORK/POSTOFFICE/MAILBOX}

  If you are using Da Vinci version 1.X, use the format:

  GATEWAY"NETWORK/POSTOFFICE/MAILBOX":USER

  If the name is too long for the addressing field, contact Da Vinci for a
  solution.

The manual incorrectly shows a semicolon before the userID, thus:

  GATEWAY"NETWORK/POSTOFFICE/MAILBOX";USER


Additional query words: 3.00 DocErr
