Yes, btool isn't coded especially gracefully in this spot, but it is a useful tactic to create a zero byte file and "save" from it, if you need a quick way to delete all records from a certain database. :-) > Backup.

Packet: 26. DataSize(): 26. Required > size: 44 I haven't concentrated on Email backup, since this is in theory stored on RIM's servers anyway, and depending on the amount of email someone has, could take a very long time to transfer all that email over the air. Therefore, while backup to mbox format should be possible, the restore might have issues, and I don't recommend it anyway. Your report is good to know though.
