SUMMARY
=======

The Microsoft Mail Connection Gateway requires the existence of all sub-
directories created during the installation in order to successfully locate the
Connections Store using the Gateway Configuration.

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

During installation, the Macintosh portion of the Gateway Connection installer
will create the following directory structure:

       \Maildata
        |
  |Macgate
         |ini
         |badmail
       |misc
          |store
         |mactopc
       |pctomac

If one of the ini, badmail, or store levels (sub-directories) is missing, you
will not be able to Locate the Connection Store using the Gateway
Configuration.

Once the MACGATE folder is selected, it will accept that location and stop
looking. However, if one of the sub-directories is missing, it will allow you to
continue to browse through the all of the sub-directories under the MACGATE
level.

If this occurs, recreate the missing sub-directory and reselect SET in the
Gateway Configuration to try to relocate the store.

For more information on the directories created during the Mail Connection 3.2
installation, refer to page 9 in the Microsoft Mail Connection version 3.2 for
PC and AppleTalk Networks "Administrator's Guide."
