I am running SeaMonkey 1.1.18 and when I turn my computer back on
after returning from work and check my e-mail, I get a message about
90% of the time stating:

"There was an error truncating the Inbox after filtering a message to
folder XYZ ( Insert name on one of my folders for XYZ ) . You may
need to shut down SeaMonkey and delete inbox.msf ".

This hangs up my e-mail until I click on the OK Box in the message and
when download over 2000 e-mails when SeaMonkey starts back up, it
get's OLD Fast.

I have searched for this inbox.msf and cannot locate this folder.

After I first start SeaMonkey I still get the error about once
every 50
or so messages.

In Seamonkey click on Edit > Mail & Newsgroup Account Settings >
Server Settings for the Account in question. Then at the bottom of the window is a Local Directory, listing the path to your e-mail folder on
the hard drive. You will find inbox.msf here.

Ok still there after I deleted file. An more suggestions ?

With the cursor in any folder in this account, do File | Compact folders.

BTW, when deleting any msf file, you'll get the best results if you do
it with the program closed.

I do the file/Compact Folders twice a week just to be sure.
And BTW, It will NOT let you delete the .msf file with the program open.
Still getting it so any more suggestions ?

Richard, how about closing SM totally (including the Quick Launch feature if you use it), open your file manager and locate your inbox file. Rena me the inbox file (the one with-out the .msf) to something different, inbox_broken maybe. Delete the inbox.msf file again.

Now re-start SM. A new, empty inbox will be created. Does this fix your problem??

Daniel

I did this sir and had no problem.
It did create a new folder in my inbox called inbox_broken with all my old messages in it. I want to install the newest SeaMonkey but I do not want to lose all my old e-mails.
