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. You
do not need to run Fixup on mail files that are based on a Domino® Release 5 or later mail
template.
Procedure
- Shut down the server.
- From the Microsoft™ Windows™ command prompt, change
to the Domino program directory.
For example, if you installed Domino in
the default location, enter:
- To run Fixup on a specific mail file, enter:
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
What to do next
After you run Fixup, you can run the mail conversion
utility to enable the mail file for IMAP.
