APPLIES TO


 * Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.0

-



This article was previously published under Q91699



SYMPTOMS
You may see the following incorrect error message when you start the Windows client of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, after you install both it and the Presentation Manager client for OS/2 on a system that boots both MS- DOS and OS/2:

Mail will not run because someone has tampered with the program files. Check your machine for viruses and run setup to reinstall Mail.



CAUSE
The Setup program for both clients stamps MSMAIL.EXE and changes the size of the file. This causes the program to think that it has been infected with a virus.



RESOLUTION
Install the Windows and Presentation Manager clients in two separate directories.
