PC Adm: Err Msg: Error Creating Mailbox (93565)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail for PC Networks 3.0
This article was previously published under Q93565 SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to add a user by using the Admin utility (ADMIN.EXE) in
Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, version 3.0, you may see the following
error message:
Error creating mailbox
CAUSE
Microsoft Mail may not be able to create the mailbox because there are not
enough available directory entries in the Novell NetWare operating system.
NetWare reserves a specific number of directory entries on the volume based
on the volume size. NetWare defines directory entries as files,
subdirectories, and trustee assignments. If there are not enough available
entries, Mail cannot add the new user.
RESOLUTION
You can check to see how many directory entries are available on a NetWare
volume by running the VOLINFO NetWare utility. To do this, type VOLINFO at
any NetWare drive prompt.
If there are not enough free directory entries, add more disk space to the
NetWare volume or delete files, subdirectories, and trustee assignments.
