First thing, run some kind of disk checking tool to make sure the drive is ok. Then double check that you don't have a new bad Temp Incoming file. The remove the Emailer prefs file (either in the Emailer folder, or in the Claris folder in the System folder). Then reboot with extensions off and see if Emailer opens normally (it won't be able to collect email, but we are just verifying Emailers ability to run). Then try a basic rebuild of the database. Obviously, if at any point above the problem goes away, you need not try the next thing. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
