This update includes the following modification: - When Microsoft Mail Selector (MAILDRV.EXE) loads a driver after EFAX has been activated, the driver does not become EFAX aware. Therefore, when EFAX is activated, the provider section for the EFAX driver is removed from the MSMAIL.INI file in the Windows directory. This updated version of the Mail Selector (MAILDRV.EXE) makes all the drivers EFAX aware. This ensures that when the driver is installed, the EFAX driver is not removed. NOTE: Because MAILDRV.EXE looks at the EFAX software, this version of MAILDRV.EXE should be installed ONLY on machines running version 3.11 of Microsoft Windows for Workgroups.
