SUMMARY
=======

On page 313 of version 3.2 or page 315 of version 3.5 Microsoft Mail for PC
Networks "Administrator's Guide," the following is incorrectly stated:

  If there is no new mail, the Errorlevel is set to 0 by the New Mail utility;
  any other value is an error.

It should read:

  If there is new mail, Errorlevel is set to 0 by the New Mail utility;
  otherwise it is set to 1.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The following can be added to the AUTOEXEC.BAT batch file or the Novell login
script to start the Mail program automatically when there is new mail:

  NEWMAIL mailbox
  If Errorlevel 1 goto END
  MAIL mailbox -ppassword
  :END
