Question : open Novell GroupWise Archived Mail.

open Novell GroupWise Archived Mail.
I deleted a user along time ago but before doing so I archived all the email in the account and burned the archive directory to cd.I can not seem to access the archived email.
I recreated the user account.

Answer : open Novell GroupWise Archived Mail.

The re-created the user does not have the same FID as the Archive.  Since you just created the user you may be able to change the FID for the user.

If that does not work, follow the links for the Archive FID Editor at the bottom.  You can edit the FID of the archive to match the new FID for the user.
