Re: MX OUtlook Express Question

it shouldn't find any problems very often. NTFS is extremely reliable about 
these things. the file system will be valid and correct under a large number 
of crash conditions. that doesn't mean that applications can't screw things 
up on their own by being sloppy about keeping things transactional. that 
will leave a valid file system with incorrect contents. NTFS's journaling 
file system is transactional and much harder to make inconsistent.

FWIW - I do not think that any disk check on NTFS has ever found any 
problem - a fact that leave me wondering in the check programs do much 
good. I also associate NTFS with HPFS - which I believe is the anticedent 
of NTFS. I used HPFS for several years back before the MS empire dominated 
the universe - HPFS crashed and burned terribly on me more than a few 
times. (Part of the reason why I wound up back in Windows.) I'm sure NTFS 
is a significant improvemnt of the HPFS I used to use the Warp days, but 
still
