All users get two default privileges, but they don't allow them to use Mail. The error message is as follows: MAIL-E-UAFOPNERR, error opening user authorization file -RMS-E-PRV, insufficient privilege or file protection violation. The only way to take care of this problem is if they are given Group privileges, but that allows them too much of an access that we don't want to give. Any suggestions on what could be wrong or how to fix this? Could be that the file that was tried to be opened isn't allowed to be opened by the group, or world. Our documentation isn't adequate enough yet, and doesn't tell what file Mail uses. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanx in advance. Samir Kaleem.. Bitnet: Arpa: (Huda Hafiz)
