A file by the name of Colloidal silver.mbx would be the index file for the
"Colloidal Silver" mailbox when using Eudora.

In the version of Eudora I am using, 4.3, the MBX file is the actual mailbox - data file. For each associated mailbox, there is a file with a TOC extension. It is about 5 % the size of the MBX file. Considering the size ratio, I would think the index file is mailbox.toc or whatever the mailbox name.

Infrequently I have a corrupt index file and Eudora can rebuild these with no loss of messages.

 If you delete this file you
will lose your mailbox I believe.
    Yes,  the MBX will zap the whole message base for that box.

You may want to take a look at this link which I think outlines how to get the
index file rebuilt:
http://www.cs.nwu.edu/~beim/eudora/eudora-fix-toc.html

I did look at the link. I developed my own system for doing the same thing a bit differently long ago.

Of course the only fool proof thing to do is make a PKZIP batchfile to backup and compress all the TOC and MBX files.

Or.... mirror the whole smear.
