      Ultimedia Mail/2 Lite Ver. 2.1 (UltiMail) Does Not Accept
                "Accessing a Network" Information
======================================================================

Please Read Entire Document for Full Explanation of Procedures
----------------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION

UltiMail fails during startup when information for "Accessing a 
Network" is entered. No matter what information is entered, the 
information is deleted and must be reentered. This is an endless loop 
and can be broken only by canceling UltiMail.

This problem was discovered in UltiMail version 2.10.001 (as shipped 
with OS/2 Warp Connect and available from ftp.ibm.net). It happens 
most frequently with *other* providers, not Advantis.

RESOLUTION

Add (or edit) the USER section to UMAIL.PRO, the UltiMail profile.

1. Using a text editor, open UMAIL.PRO, which is in the TCPIP\UMAIL 
   directory.

2. Locate :USER and verify the following information. (If this section
   is not present, add it in the following format.)

   :USER id           = 'ibm'
         other_id     = 'Internet'
         name         = 'John Doe'
         reply_id     = 'ibm'
         reply_domain = 'ibm.net'

    where:

    id is your POP3 user ID (usually the same as your logon ID for your
    provider).
 
    other_id is always "Internet" for a dial-up connection.

    name is your full name, as it is to appear in your letters.

    reply_id is everything before the @ symbol in your e-mail 
    address.

    reply_domain is everything after the @ symbol in your e-mail
    address.

3. File UMAIL.PRO.

4. Restart UltiMail.  

   The "Accessing a Network" window will appear with all fields filled
   except Password.

5. Enter your POP3 password, and then verify it when asked.

UltiMail now should start and function normally.
