Additional Information

Steps to Duplicate:
  1. Open GroupWise client and login with a user account, make sure notify is running.
  2. Make any changes to the mailbox layout, eg: adjust the subject line width or add the size column, complete column etc..
  3. Shutdown the system without closing GroupWise client.
  4. After the system is restarted open the GroupWise client and log in, the changes made to the subject tab and the size tab added,and the complete tab will not be there.
The issue can be reproduced only if notify is running. If notify is turned off the changes made are saved even when the system is shut down with the GroupWise client still logged in.
