This update provides the following functionality: - It adds the ability to save attachments sent from the Microsoft Mail Connection gateway and the Macintosh Client for PC Mail. - It corrects a problem with the X.400 gateway where the message body is forced into a T.61 attachment instead of an IA5 attachment. When the remote client sends mail to X.400 recipients that cannot accept T.61 attachments, the entire message is rejected. - It correctly displays FFAPI network/postoffice entities defined on the remote user's home postoffice that have a Service Type = 100.
