<<True, Windows Messaging is installed into a different directory. One
should not delete the original Exchange client until Messaging is up and
running, then the old EXE and DLLs can be deleted.>>

I guess we'll have to disagree on this one. Since installing the update
"activates" the new version, the old one is just taking up space. And
things like the link to WordMail don't get properly updated if the old
version is not deleted first.

<<Shortly, the install for Messaging will automatically delete the old
Exchange client preserving the folders and messages.>>

Hmm, that kind of sounds like it would produce the same effect as my
recommendation.... ;-)

BTW, there's one downside to the upgrade (say what?) that hasn't been
mentioned: Netscape Navigator's "Use Exchange Client for Mail and News"
option appears to be hard-wired to the original Win95 Exchange software
or location, so it stops working after the update. There may be a
registry entry for Navigator to control this; I haven't checked.
