The situation described by Robert (and which I experimented all too often) should'nt ever happen, and if it happens, the tool to *try* and retrieve some of the messages in the corrupt database should be included in the package we are paying for, not paid (rather expensive) to a third party developer. Especially since the problem is evidently with PowerMail.
