SUMMARY

IMPORTANT: All Microsoft Mail version 2.00 customers who have gateways installed should be using the "MS Mail GW" file version 2.00b and the "Microsoft Mail Server" file version 2.00b, both of which are located in the System Folder of the Mail server. An updated "MS Mail GW" file is available through Microsoft End User Sales and Service at (800) 426-9400 or Microsoft International Customer Service at (206) 936-8661 but ONLY for customers using the AppleLink Gateway to Microsoft Mail. Customers using other gateways must obtain an updated "MS Mail GW" file from the developer of the gateway they are using. The Microsoft Mail server upgrade can also be obtained at the above numbers.

MORE INFORMATION

When adding users to a gateway account so that they can send mail through the gateway, a Mail group cannot be added to give everyone in the group access to the gateway. This feature is not supported; you must add each user individually.

However, a group can be added and made the "default user" for that gateway account. This means that everyone in the group will receive any incoming mail from the gateway. For more information on how to do this, query on the following words:
