This identity was backed up recently to a .sit compressed file. When it was
expanded, stuffit expander gave the error that the database file had a
damaged data fork. All of the other files expanded perfectly.

OK.. So is there any way I can get my messages from that messages profile? I
really don't care that much about the database.. As long as I don't lose the
