To update your ATTMAIL.DLL file
-------------------------------

1. Verify that the AT&T Mail driver is the current driver in the Mail System
  Selector (MAILDRV.EXE) by running the Mail System Selector from Program
  Manager, selecting AT&T Mail, and choosing Set As Current Mail Driver.

2. At the MS-DOS command prompt, type the following and press ENTER

  " copy <path>:\attmail.dll <destination> " (without the quotation
  marks)

  where <path> is the drive and directory where you ran the self-
  extracting ATTMAIL.EXE file and <destination> is the drive and
  directory where your ATTMAIL.DLL file currently resides. For example, if you
  ran the self-extracting file from the TEST directory on drive D, and your
  ATTMAIL.DLL file is located in the Windows SYSTEM subdirectory on drive C,
  type the following command:

  " copy d:\test\attmail.dll c:\windows\system " (without the quotation marks)
