My INBOX appears to be corrupted. Every imap client now gives us an error when we try to download a message. It appears the mbx header is missing.
Can anyone help recover my mail? Mac OS 10.4 Tiger with all updates mmp-morsberger-com:/var/log root# telnet localhost imap Trying ::1... Connected to localhost.
