PC WRmt: System Selector Does Not Validate Its Results

• Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows, version 3.2

SYMPTOMS

The Microsoft Mail System Selector provided with Microsoft Mail Remote version 3.2 for Windows does not delete extended command entries if you interrupt and restart the application.

CAUSE

The Selector can report an incorrect driver as the current driver. When Mail starts, various error messages appear that depend on the previous driver and on the new driver.

RESOLUTION

If you have difficulty starting Mail Remote for Windows immediately after you change Mail drivers, run the Selector program. Select the last driver you chose more than once. This procedure resolves the problem for some drivers.

Running the Selector program a second time and choosing the driver multiple times appears to correct the problem, even though remote extended commands remain in the MSMAIL.INI file.

Because Mail supports various drivers, no single method is available to resolve this problem. However, for certain drivers, using the Selector utility to choose the new driver repeatedly (without choosing an alternate driver between choices) can resolve some problems.
