FFAPI: Memory Usage for MS-DOS Get and Put Executable Files

ID: Q115518

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Mail Gateway to FFAPI, versions 2.1, 3.0

SUMMARY

The Microsoft Mail File Format Application Programming Interface (FFAPI) runs in conventional memory. Since MS-DOS and network drivers also run in the same memory, sometimes you may not be able to load or run FFAPI.

FFAPI loads the following files into memory:


   GLB\NETWORK.GLB
   XTN\*.XTN
   GLB\GROUP.GLB
   GLB\ACCESS2.GLB

As more postoffice users are added, memory available to process messages decreases.
