Josh: Is this something that should be done periodically as preventative
maintenance, like rebuilding the desktop in the Finder? In what situation(s)
would one want to compact the database as opposed to compacting it. In what
situation(s) would one want to do both. I run Outlook Express and have a ton
of emails. I haven't had any problem (yet), although occasionally the
program quits by itself (I may be hitting some magic key combo though by
accident.
