   APPPUT.EXE   ( 67,641 bytes, dated 04-26-93, 6:58 P.M.)

To update your APPPUT.EXE, LAPPPUT.EXE, and OAPPPUT.EXE files (FFAPI executable files)

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

   copy <path>:\*.exe <destination>

where <path> is the drive and directory where you ran the self-extracting FFAPIUPD.EXE file and <destination> is the drive and directory where your FFAPI executable files currently reside. For example, if you ran the self- extracting file from the TEST directory on drive D, and your FFAPI executable files are located in the MAILEXE directory on drive C, type the following command:

   copy d:\test\*.exe c:\mailexe

NOTE: Mail does not require that the FFAPI executable files be located in the MAILEXE directory. Also, the FFAPI executable files can be part of a third-party application. Make sure you check with the application developer before updating copies of the FFAPI executable files.
