Nothing unusual yesterday except I was prompted to download and install Java 7
Update 09. A few hours later PowerMail was downloading 100s of old messages
from my POP e-mail account. Looking further, I saw none of my Sent messages
were in the Sent folder from after the end of July. I also noticed that one of
my PM message folders was missing and some other folders were missing recent
messages. My iMac (10.8.2) was not running smoothly. I used Option Command
and restarted PM 6.1.3 and ran all the options there -- twice, but no help.
Luckily, I had a SuperDuper clone from Sunday, so I started from that.
Weirdly, I saw PM messages I sent yesterday in this clone from Sunday. There
weren't any missing PM message folders and no messages appeared to be missing.
I cloned the clone back to my iMac and all seems okay now. I don't know if
that Java update was the culprit, but I don't think I'll install on my iMac now.
Again, for the clone from Sunday to have messages I sent Thursday seems really
strange to me.
