PC WRmt: Sharing the AT&T Message File with Microsoft Mail

• Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows, version 3.2

SUMMARY

When you use the AT&T Mail driver with version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail Remote for Windows, it creates its own message file, called MS_ATT.MMF, in the Windows directory. If you are also using version 3.0 or 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows or the Mail Remote driver, you can share the AT&T message file.

CAUTION: This procedure copies the Personal Address Book (PAB) to the AT&T message file. It is best to use this procedure only after you have run Mail Remote for Windows with the AT&T driver the first time because copying the Personal Address Book to the AT&T message file overwrites existing addresses.

To share the AT&T message file with Microsoft Mail, do the following:

1. If you have not already run Mail Remote with the AT&T Mail driver, do so.



2. From the File menu, choose Exit And Sign Out.



3. Use the Mail System Selector to change the current driver to Mail for Windows or Mail Remote for Windows.



4. Start Mail Remote for Windows or Mail for Windows.



5. From the File menu, choose Export Folder. Select <Windows>\MS_ATT.MMF as the destination file name.



6. From the File menu, choose Exit And Sign Out.



7. Rename the original local message store used by the LAN and Remote drivers.



8. Make sure the Mail Remote or Mail for Windows driver is current and start Mail Remote for Windows again. A message tells you that the message file could not be found, since it no longer exists in the original location with the original file name. Mail Remote for Windows prompts you to locate the message file or create a new file.



9. Enter the name of the AT&T message file, which now contains all the information from the original message file (including the Personal Address Book).



10. Choose the OK button.
