fix

A fix for this issue is included in any build of GWCheck32 after 4/18/2004.

Run this version of GWCheck with the following parameters:

1. Structure unchecked
2. the user ID in the User/Resource box
3. Contents checked
4. Fix Problems checked
5. Database Tab->Messages unchecked
5. Misc Tab enter delsubscriberecords

Then run it.

This will delete the subscribe records in the users database.

Run the GW client against the user and add the user to notification list in Tools->Options->Security->Notify.

This will properly add the subscribe records. The user should then be able to successfully run Notify at this time.
