When I email a friend, they are often rejected with the following message:

DELIVERY FAILURE: Error transferring to USNYCDH00/HUB/MMC mail.box; Cannot
store document - database has too many unique field names. Please set the
'Allow more fields in database' option or ask your administrator to compact
the database.

Does anybody have any idea how I can resolve the problem?

Hi there,

It looks like they are using a Lotus Domino server for email (amongst other
things). The 'mail.box' is the mail router's transitional storage prior to
placing the messages in the specific user mailboxes.

If they are getting this error then something has gone wrong with the design
of that database, probably corrupt. I would have thought by now they'd've
noticed and fixed it.

Basically, don't worry, it's not a problem with your email. Maybe ask your
friend to forward this message to their Administrator.

Cheers,
Matt
