TITLE:      Mail Option Doesn't Appear On File Menu (cc: Mail)
PRODUCT:    WordPerfect 6.0 for Windows


Problem
The Mail option does not appear on the File menu.  You are using
cc:Mail from Lotus Corporation.


Solution
During installation, WordPerfect 6.0 for Windows looks for one of
three files in the path: VIM.DLL, MAPI.DLL, and SMI.DLL.  If one
of these three files is not found, the Mail option will not show
up on the File menu.

If the Mail option does not appear on the File menu, the mail
information was not added to the .BIF file.  This will happen if
the VIM.DLL and SMI.DLL files are not in the Windows directory or
the path.  Putting these files in the path and running the
workstation install again usually solves the problem.  You need
to have cc:Mail version 1.11 or later.  Version 1.1 does not
follow the VIM standard.

This problem can also be fixed by manually adding the appropriate
information using the BIF Editor.

1     Open the appropriate .BIF file (the private .BIF file for
      most users).

2     Open the WP Shared Code group, then open the Mail section.

3     Edit the VIM item.

If any of the items listed in steps 1 through 3 do not exist, 

1     Click Insert.

2     Change the Item Type to ANSI String and fill in the fields
      as indicated below:

            Group:      WP Shared Code
            Section:    Mail
            Item:       VIM  (NOTE: VIM is case sensitive--you must
                        type it in capital letters.)
            Value:      &Mail

3     Save the .BIF file by choosing Save from the File menu.

4     Start WordPerfect 6.0 for Windows.

The Mail option will now be displayed on the File menu.  The
ampersand (&) in the Value field indicates which letter is used
as the mnemonic for that mail option; for example, the letter
after the & will be underlined on the pull-down menu.  Pressing
that letter will open the Mail option.

These directions will work for other VIM-compliant mail programs
as well.
