Can I run CustomMailer under different, newer versions of Java?

Yes. CustomMailer ships with and uses an older Java Runtime Environment JRE 1.1.8_008 because it is much smaller than subsequent Java runtime environments. However, CustomMailer will run under the newer Java runtime environments, and you may wish to switch if you have having a problem with the older JRE on your system. To do this, you need to do the following: 1) Go to the folder C:\Program Files\CustomMailer 4.0\CustomMailerApp 2) Make a copy of the file CustomMailer.jar and call it CustomMailer.zip 3) Unzip CustomMailer.zip so that the entire contents is in a subfolder of the CustomMailerApp folder called CustomMailer. 4) Locate a Java RunTime Environment you’d like to use on your machine, e.g., look in the folder C:\Program Files\Java (or \JavaSoft). If needed, you can go to http://java.sun.com/download to download and install the latest environemnt, currently J2SE 5.0 JRE.
