Change history
---------------
21-Feb-2003

  This patch contains a version of the mailbox filters and vacation notice
  web interface that has been modified to use JavaScript instead of Java
  applets for user interaction.  Sites experiencing problems with the
  mailbox filters and vacation notice web interface with client browsers
  should install this patch.  If a site is not experiencing problems with
  the mailbox filters and vacation notice applets that shipped with PMDF
  V6.2, there is no need to install this patch.

  Because of interaction issues with most browsers' JavaScript engines, 
  use of the special characters ampersand (&), backslash, left angle
  bracket (<), and right angle bracket (>) is not supported.  In
  addition, other special characters with ASCII values greater than 128
  may not work properly.

25-Feb-2003

  Add closing  tag to make more compatible with older browsers.
