PC Setup: Incorrect Disk Space Requirement for 3.2 Update

Last reviewed: October 24, 1994

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, version 3.2

Page 11 of the Microsoft Mail version 3.2 "Administrator's Guide" incorrectly states that when a postoffice is updated, the Setup program backs up all the Mail system files, then removes them when the backup is successful. It asks that there be enough disk space on the server equal to the amount currently occupied by the server and client programs and the postoffice data files. However, the Setup program does not create a backup of the entire database, and therefore, it does not require as much disk space as it claims.
