Where do I find the inbox index (?) file?

Thanks for all guidance.


Well, the messages should be named Inbox (no extension), and the
corresponding index is Inbox.msf; if you have multiple accounts you
should find one under each account.

But the easy way to do this, having moved all desired messages out of
Inbox, is to simply delete the remaining messages from inside the
program and then compact folders. You don't need to go poking around in
directories and be sure to get the right file.



In local folders you can build a whole hierarchy and move some messages 
inside it

then compact the originate folder

in your profile-directory.

Mark all message and hit Del. Right-click on the folder and select to 
compact it afterwards.
