After you run Compact on a user's mail file to ensure that it uses the correct file format, run the Fixup task on the mail file.

Because the Fixup task requires exclusive access to the mail file database, you must shut down the server before running Fixup.

To run Fixup

1. Shut down the server.

2. From the Microsoft® Windows® command prompt, change to the Domino program directory. For example, if you installed Domino in the default location, enter:

cd c:\lotus\domino

nFixup path\mailfile

where path is the database path relative to the Domino data directory and mailfile is the name of the mail file database. For example, to run Fixup on the mail file database USER.NSF in the DATA\MAIL folder, enter:

nFixup mail\user.nsf

Note If transaction logging is enabled on the server, run Fixup with the -j switch, for example:

nFixup -j mail\user.nsf
