This article was previously published under Q127079

SUMMARY

If a LOWRCASE.GLB file exists in the GLB directory, all files created by version 3.0.3 of Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, Macintosh workstation will be created with lowercase filenames.

NOTE: The file LOWRCASE.GLB is not included with the product or with the self-extracting file MACLIENT.HQX or MACLIENT.SEA, available on the Microsoft Download Center.

Some network operating systems will not allow a file to be created in all uppercase letters. Version 3.0.3 (or later) of the Macintosh client file has been modified for these types of networks to allow the client to create filenames in lowercase letters if LOWRCASE.GLB exists in the GLB subdirectory of the Mail postoffice.
