GroupWise overwrites the Mapi.dll file (dated 7/11/95) in the Windows\System folder with an older version of the file, and renames the original Mapi.dll file to Mapi.!ll. RESOLUTION ========== To work around this problem, remove the older Mapi.dll file in the Windows\System folder, and then rename the Mapi.!ll file to Mapi.dll.
