I’m in big trouble!
Some of the messages in an Entourage folder (naturally it’s a folder with important business related messages) have become corrupt. Most of these corrupt messages are just garbled text. These I can select and delete.
Some however, have attachments and when I select these, Entourage just completely freezes. Not even a forced quit is possible.
I tried an advanced rebuild (4 times) but this doesn’t help.

I don’t thing I can remove the messages with AppleScript, because I first noticed the problem when archiving with eMA. Everything locked up when eMA reached a certain message in the offending folder.

How do I solve this?

TIA

Someone may have a more elegant solution, but try selecting messages on either side of the offending message so that you can select the message without causing Erage to try and display the attachment. Then delete both/all.
