Good.

This is *not* a problem. On *my* system (WinNT, IE 5.5), this is a backup of
MAPI32.dll - it doesn't have to be there.

Good.

Is it the same size as TBMAPI.dll in the TB folder? Probably...

I can't say/write anything about Eudora, but it shouldn't produce any
conflicts with TB.

This problem is confirmed. It seems that Microsoft applications
(except Internet Explorer and FrontPage) do not work with TB MAPI
right now.

You *must* have MAPI32.dll! If it's not there at the beginning,
"/InstallMAPI" will copy and rename TBMAPI.dll in the system
directory. It has to be there, or MAPI definitely won't work.

Probably, it's a WinNT (or maybe Office 2000) specific program. Forget
about it. ;)

Go to the directory "SendTo" (in your WinME directory). Is there a
file with an extension "MAPIMail" (or similar)?
The entries within the "Send To" menu are *simple file links*. You can
delete them and create new ones just as you want (but be careful)!

Yes, at the moment, TB MAPI is really beta...
