Message Database has a mod date of Today (of course) Message Databases 2 and 3 both have the same mod dates and times (Dec 14, 2006) So I think the last date may be when I used the first five maintenance activities under PowerMail First Aid. Databases 2 and 3 are now deleted. I have also deleted the Old Format Database folder (Dec 10) presumably created when I upgraded to 5.5.2 Thanks, Jerome, Frank -- Frank Mitchell, Scottsdale, Arizona
