Hello all,
for a few days now I have experienced a problem where PowerMail can't open the
index file. The sequence of dialogs is ...
---------------------------
Can't open the index file
More info ... OK
---------------------------
An indexing error occurred
(index)
More info ... OK
---------------------------
An indexing error occurred
(index)
Class=FoxT;what=9;when=2(index)
OK
---------------------------
I'm running PM 6.2b1 on Mac OS X 10.8.4.
Looking at files in the PM directory I see one named ".PMLock" but the date is
after the problem started.

I have performed the various database rebuilds but the problem remains. It
occurs when I try to connect to iCloud SMTP server and also if I try a search.
Has anyone else seen this issue? Is there some suggestion of how to deal with
it?
Thanks.....Peter
