Jerome: Disk verified; no problem there. PM was working for a while then suddenly "unexpectedly quit" again; now cannot reopen.
Following your advice, I have tried to remove message db, address db, setup and server-side db from PowerMail Files but I find I cannot do so. When moving to anothr folder, they simply copy. It is impossible to try to reopen PM to see which, if any, is corrupted. What can you suggest? I did manage to export some folders to the PM Exchnge format but PM quit before I could import them to a new database. I'llhold them until able. Judith Beiss OS X 4.3.6 PM 5.2.2, Power Mac G4
