MORE INFORMATION

files correct a problem in version 3.0 of Microsoft Mail for Windows where the

Microsoft used the most current virus detection software available on the date of
posting to scan this file for viruses. Once posted, the file is housed on secure
servers that prevent any unauthorized changes to the file.

After you download FFAPIUPD.EXE to a clean directory, run it (by typing
"ffapiupd" (without the quotation marks) at the MS-DOS prompt) to extract the
contents of the file. You should receive the following files:

  APPPUT.EXE ( 67,641 bytes, dated 04-26-93, 6:58 P.M.)
  LAPPPUT.EXE (101,689 bytes, dated 04-26-93, 7:15 P.M.)
  OAPPPUT.EXE ( 89,641 bytes, dated 03-08-94, 3:12 P.M.)

To update your APPPUT.EXE, LAPPPUT.EXE, and OAPPPUT.EXE files (FFAPI executable
files) At the MS-DOS command prompt, type the following and press ENTER

  " copy <path>:\*.exe <destination> " (without the quotation
  marks)

where <path> is the drive and directory where you ran the self-extracting
FFAPIUPD.EXE file and <destination> is the drive and directory where your
FFAPI executable files currently reside. For example, if you ran the self-
extracting file from the TEST directory on drive D, and your FFAPI executable
files are located in the MAILEXE directory on drive C, type the following
command:

  " copy d:\test\*.exe c:\mailexe " (without the quotation marks)

NOTE: Mail does not require that the FFAPI executable files be located in the
MAILEXE directory. Also, the FFAPI executable files can be part of a third-party
application. Make sure you check with the application developer before updating
copies of the FFAPI executable files.
