SYMPTOMS
When you use Netscape 6.x client and try to attach a file, the following source is revealed as the HTTP code in question: http:cpshost.dll?publish?... Netscape translates this to www.cpshost.dll  as the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), and you receive the following error message:

www.cpshost.dll  site not found.



CAUSE
The tag &quot;http:&quot; in front of the action appears to be invalid.
