PC Adm: Err Msg: Notice 53 Error Creating User Address

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, ensure that the user has sufficient network rights to the database. If the file is missing or corrupted and no backup exists, create a test user. Copy the test user's .NME file to the .NME file of the user experiencing the problem. Add names as required.

A second option (see the note below before you attempt this resolution) is to copy the ADMIN.NME file to <xxxxxxx>.NME. This makes the complete postoffice address list (POL) the user's personal address list (PAL), and any unnecessary names can be deleted.

NOTE: If the ADMIN.NME file has a user "Foreign Admin" who is the administrator of another postoffice (added by using the Address, Create command in the Mail Administrator program) and a user deletes "Foreign Admin" from the PAL, the MS-DOS Mail client goes to the NETPO.GLB file and marks the "Foreign Admin" record there as deleted. The name remains in the PAL, however, and if the user tries to send mail to "Foreign Admin" from the PAL, the following error results: If neither of these methods works, you may have to reset the NETPO.GLB file by using the MS-DOS DEBUG program with the following commands:

(NOTE: Make a backup copy of the NETPO.GLB file before you proceed with the steps below.) This will reset the first 4 bytes of the file.
