Hello MFPA, This is what you said on Thu, 23 Oct 2008 21:11:35 +0100 your time: Oops. I forgot about this issue and changed some options for a folder.

Annoying isn't it! :-/ I don't know why it would be different folder for you. I have TB! custom installed so perhaps that might explain it. But I don't ever remember it using the %userprofile% for data files. Most odd. BTW, has this been resolved yet? Well I hope someone 'in the know' can answer this, because it is an infuriating bug.

Re: Very annoyed indeed: messages vanished
Hello, I have been unable to replicate the problem I described...and I have tried many ways. No damage, that's the main thing. I have seven TB! accounts and hundreds of folders between them, and only the subfolders under the folder to which I configured a custom notification sound were mysteriously moved to TB!'s installation directory. For the record, all my data is stored on an encrypted TrueCrypt partition...and so that obviously includes my TB! message base. I don't know whether this has something to do with it, but I wouldn't have thought it would make any difference. Anyway, to ensure that email messages doesn't get left on an unecrypted partition again I've installed TB! to the TrueCrypt partition as well. At least if TB! decides to move my messages they will still remain inside the 'encrypted container' at shutdown. Still, very curious. -- Simon (Privateofcourse) #24802.

Re: Very annoyed indeed: messages vanished
Hello Martin, This is what you said on Thu, 9 Oct 2008 11:55:07 +0200 your time: There was a report that messages disappear when you change folder properties. The workaround is to not change folder properties until the next version comes out. Thanks for the heads up! I'll leave well alone for the moment then. And at least I know there's nothing else causing the problem. Experienced the same problem myself. Hope Ritlabs uploads a new install version soon. Ditto! Can't be having folders full of messages going AWOL. -- Simon (Privateofcourse) #31770.

Very annoyed indeed: messages vanished
Hello TBUDL, I just set a sound for a folder under an account in TB! Eg. D:\My Libraries\Media\wav\email.wav Clicked OK and ALL the messages in the subfolders beneath the folder have vanished. I checked the messages.tbb and messages.tbi files for each sub folder under the folder and they are all between 19 and 20+ kb. I haven't backed up this last fortnight so I need to recover my messages...if at all possible. I have backups from before that, but these communications are important.

Re: Very annoyed indeed: messages vanished
Hello Privateofcourse, Hmm, very curious. After hunting about I found the NEW location of the missing messages. I never thought to look in the TB! installation folder for these missing messages, but there they were, all 92MB of them, in their corresponding sub folders (four folders, each with a messages.tbb and messages.tbi file in them. So, imported each folder back into TB! and all messages accounted for, right up to the moment I changed the folder sound. -- Simon (Privateofcourse) #33307.
