ENGINEERING REALEASE NOTES
--------------------------

1. General Description

	These release notes acquaint you with the contents of UnixWare
	PTF244 - Fix for uw1.1 mail scripts. This package modifies the 
	mail scripts after saving the originals to a save directory. 

2. Software Notes and Recommendations

	This package is for  update112 and update113 only. 
	ptf179 is included in this ptf as it requires ptf179.
	Number of problems are fixed by this package by modifying the mail
	related shell and perl scripts. The list of problems fixed are 
	as below:
	
	1. Sending attachments with UW1.x mail causes error message.
	2. An extra space between "domain" and the domain name in  
	   resolv.conf causes problems.
	3. "From" line not being RFC822 compliant.
	4. Errors in smf-poll and smf-out cause NetWare connectivity problems.
	5. Syntax errors in mailsurr.proto cause MHS mail to not function 
	   properly.
	6. Mail is not received on a UW system addressed to user@domain.
	7. UW1.1 mail doesn't work with other Sendmail systems on the  same 
	   local domain.
	8. Lack of -r on smtp line in inetd.conf causes bang style  addressing.

	Testing of the modified software contained in this package has been
	conducted only to the extent necessary to confirm that it resolves the
	problem(s) stated above ("Symptom").  Such testing consists of
	recreating the problem conditions and verifying that the problem 
        no longer occurs.  No other testing of this software has been done.
