When you upgrade version 3.0 of Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Networks Mail Server to version 3.1, you must remove the MCI CommGATE gateway prior to the upgrade and re-install it after the upgrade is complete. If the gateway is not removed and re-installed, it may fail to function.

Choose the Save button to extract a copy of the CommGATE Gateway Recipients into the CommGATE MCI Acct/Recip file.
  2. Remove the CommGATE gateway by selecting Gateway:Remove Gateway from the top menu bar.
  3. Upgrade the Microsoft Mail server to version 3.1.
  4. Re-install the CommGATE gateway as described in the CommGATE Administrator's Guide.
