-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you use version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows, and you attempt to run
the CONVERT.EXE utility that converts the MS-DOS workstation private folders to
folders in your Windows client's Mail Message File (MMF), you will receive a
screen flash or a MS-DOS box if your Windows client is running on Microsoft
Windows NT version 3.5.
CAUSE
=====
The CONVERT.EXE utility will not run on Windows NT version 3.5. This is a
MS-DOS-based compiled application. There is a CONVERT.EXE that comes with
Windows NT 3.5 that allows you to convert your hard drive partition from FAT or
HPFS to NTFS partitions.
RESOLUTION
==========
If your MMF file is on the postoffice:
1. Log into the postoffice from a Windows for Workgroups machine.
2. Run the CONVERT.EXE from the Windows for Workgroups machine.
If your MMF file is local, you will have to place the your MMF on the
postoffice.
1. From the Mail menu, choose Options.
2. Select the Server button.
3. Select Postoffice for the storage. Select OK.
4. Log into the postoffice from a Windows for Workgroups machine.
5. Run the CONVERT.EXE from the Windows for Workgroups machine.
