Hello TBUDLers,

Not so long ago (as I remember it) there was a discussion about
recovering a corrupted mail account by means of renames and restores but
I cannot, for the life of me, locate it in the archives.

I have an account (my oldest one) which had been playing up on
compresses and the like so not so long ago I 'fixed' it.  At which point
about 3/4 of the mail in it disappeared!  I still have old backups
around that pre-date that occurrence so would like to attempt to
reconstruct the account from that, plus the stuff that remains from (and
of course that which is newer than) the disaster.

I'm still not convinced the account is in perfect order, so a create
from scratch would be ideal.  I've just done a full backup of the
account as it stands tonight.

Can someone either point me to the right spot in the archives or suggest
the best sequence of steps?

BTW, am using 2.1 and the old backup will be an earlier version (I don't
know which, but suspect 2.0 or better).

Cheers,
 Allister
