I provide tech support to a customer/friend of mine. He called me about
a problem he was having with the SENT folder under his profile.
Actually, there are 4 issues happening:
1) On entry to the mail/news side, he gets a notification saying summary
file being rebuilt for this folder
2) Sent messages appear in the folder but on exiting the program, and
going back in, the message no longer appears.
3) Compacting the folder does not seem to work (file size is roughly 4GB).
I think that that (4GB) may be a magic number.
I suggest that you split the folder into at least 2 pieces
something like: 'sent-pre-yymmdd' and 'sent'.
You may be able to do this within SM by creating a 'sent-pre-yymmdd',
moving the appropriate messages from 'sent' into it, and then
compressing 'sent'
4) Cannot delete or rename the folder in an effort to recreate it.
What I have tried - deleting the .msf for that folder (still does a
rebuild on reentry to program after being closed/exited). I do have a
work around in place using a SENT folder as the repository under LOCAL
FOLDERS. Newly sent messages do stay put and it did compact properly but
I did not check final file size.
Any ideas or suggestions on a fix or wait for 2.0.12 for a fix?
Thanks in advance!!
Hope that helps. Let me know.
