SYMPTOMS
========
When you attempt to use the Microsoft Mail Notifier extension included with
Microsoft Mail for AppleTalk Network, MS-DOS workstation, you may receive the
following error message:
The control panel Microsoft Mail Notifier cannot be used with this Macintosh.
CAUSE
=====
This error will occur if the Microsoft Mail for PC Networks postoffice you are
connecting to is on a Novell NetWare version 4.1 server using the Netware
Directory Services (NDS) for authentication.
The problem occurs because the Microsoft Mail Notifier requires that the network
drive be mounted on the Macintosh's desktop on startup. However, NetWare 4.1
using NDS will not allow the network drive to be mounted.
NOTE: Notifier works fine when using Novell NetWare 4.1 and Bindery Emulation.
