INTRODUCTION
============

The disk provided with this Application Note contains MOVEUSER.EXE, a
replacement for the MOVEUSER.EXE file that is included with version
3.2 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks. This update corrects the
following problem:

 - Users moved from one postoffice to another postoffice with the
   MOVEUSER utility are assigned an invalid identification number if
   the TID.GLB file on the destination postoffice is locked open.
   Moving multiple users while the TID.GLB file is locked open results
   in the same invalid identification number being assigned to
   multiple users. When Mail is addressed to one of these users, the
   other users with the same invalid identification number also get
   added to the recipients list. To avoid this problem, the MOVEUSER
   version 3.2.8 update will not move a user if the TID.GLB file is
   locked open.

To update your MOVEUSER.EXE file
--------------------------------

1. Insert the enclosed WA1044 disk in your floppy disk drive.

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

      copy <drive>:\moveuser.exe <destination>

   where <drive> is the floppy disk drive containing the WA1044 disk
   and <destination> is the drive and directory where your
   MOVEUSER.EXE file currently resides. For example, if the
   MOVEUSER.EXE file is located in the MAILEXE directory on drive C
   and the WA1044 disk is in drive A, type the following command:

      copy a:\moveuser.exe c:\mailexe

   A message will be displayed stating: 1 file(s) copied. This
   indicates that your MOVEUSER.EXE file has been successfully
   replaced.

   NOTE: The MOVEUSER.EXE file typically resides on the postoffice
   server in the Mail executables directory as well as on the local
   hard drive of the Windows workstation used by the Mail
   Administrator. Make sure you update all copies of the MOVEUSER.EXE
   file.
