Make sure your system's directory path includes the x:\AccuMail and x:\AccuMail\AcmData directories. If the following installation steps are successful, this should occur automatically after restarting your computer.

If the path does not get updated correctly during the install, please use the following directions to modify your system's path.

For Windows 3.x/95

If the autoexec.bat file on the main drive of your computer already contains a PATH statement, add ;x:\AccuMail;x:\AccuMail\AcmData to the end of it, substituting the x with the install drive. If the autoexec.bat file doesn't contain a PATH statement, add the following line to the file:

PATH %PATH%;x:\AccuMail;x:\AccuMail\AcmData, substituting the x with the install drive.

For Windows NT

Click the Windows Start Button and choose Settings and then Control Panel. Double-click the System icon. Choose the Environment tab and click the System Path line. Click in the Value line and add ;x:\AccuMail;x:\AccuMail\AcmData to the end of the text.
