This update includes the following modification: - When Microsoft Mail Selector (MAILDRV.EXE) loads a driver after EFAX has been activated, the driver does not become EFAX aware. Therefore, when EFAX is activated, the provider section for the EFAX driver is removed from the MSMAIL.INI file in the Windows directory. This updated version of the Mail Selector (MAILDRV.EXE) makes all the drivers EFAX aware. This ensures that when the driver is installed, the EFAX driver is not removed. NOTE: Because MAILDRV.EXE looks for the EFAX software, this version of MAILDRV.EXE should be installed ONLY on machines running version 3.11 of Microsoft Windows for Workgroups. To update your MAILDRV.EXE file ------------------------------- 1. Insert the enclosed WA0942 disk in your floppy disk drive. 2. At the MS-DOS command prompt, type the following and press ENTER copy :\maildrv.exe where is the floppy disk drive containing the WA0942 disk and is the drive and directory where your MAILDRV.EXE file currently resides. For example, if MAILDRV.EXE is located in the MSMAIL directory on drive C and the WA0942 disk is in drive A, type the following command: copy a:\maildrv.exe c:\msmail A message will be displayed stating: 1 file(s) copied. This indicates that your MAILDRV.EXE file has been successfully replaced.
