                    Converting From MCI Mail to Internet

MailRoom(tm) is the easiest way to move from MCI Mail to Internet 
Mail.

Sierra Solutions recommends the following steps to switch to Internet 
Mail service:

First, install MailRoom for Internet in the same directory you installed 
MailRoom for MCI Mail (usually C:\MAILROOM).  The new files for Internet 
mail will be added without disturbing your MCI Mail support. Your previously 
entered Preferences for MailRoom will be automatically used by MailRoom for 
Internet.

Run and configure MailRoom for Internet and test that you can send and 
receive messages to your Internet address.  Once you have confirmed that 
everything is operational, you can set your MCI Mail account to forward 
messages to your Internet address.  (See HELP AUTOFORWARD on  MCI Mail  
for instructions on how to do this.)

Once you have done this, you need not use MailRoom for MCI Mail any more.
All of your Email will be delivered to your Internet account.  You old 
MailRoom for MCI Mail address book will now be useable on the Internet 
and you will still have full access to you MCI Mail message base. You can,
however, at any time, switch back to MCI Mail by stopping your forward 
and resuming use of MailRoom for MCI Mail.  Your Internet messages will 
still be readable under MailRoom for MCI Mail version 2.3 and your address 
book will be fully usable.  You may also use MailRoom for MCI Mail To send 
FAX, Telex and Paper Mail, since these are not well supported by Internet.

We do not recommend that you run with both versions of MailRoom open at the 
same time because updates to the address book will not be synchronized.  (You 
can run both at the same time if you restrict your address book updates to one 
copy.)
