As explained in the confirmation dialog, low level data database rebuild should
only be used if you have trouble compacting your database. This error code may
be related to a file permission problem on a temporary file, but I am not sure
and I can't tell more.
If you are note 100% confident on your database, you can run "archive and
cleanup" to export all your messages and settings to a new PM user environment,
then use the newly created database with imported messages.

The found file was probably found in a backup of your current PM user
environment, and when you opened it, PM switched to this database, that's why
the recent messages are missing (I don't know why the font changed). When this
occurs, go to "file / database / switch user environment", and the file open
dialog should reveal the location of the currently open database; select the
default one instead.
