Suddenly I lost all of my sent messages and don't know why this
happened. Here is what I have tried without success.
I clicked "Sent" on the "Sent - Local Folders - SeaMonkey" (2.26.1)
page.
I then selected "Properties" from the drop down listing.
I clicked the Repair Folder button.
I next got the following window:
Alert
The operation failed because another operation is using the folder.
Please wait for that operation to finish and then try again.
OK
I decided to keep my computer powered on last night...hoping that I
would wake this morning to my sent messages once again re-appearing. No
sent messages were found. I once again followed the steps stated above
and got the same "Alert" message. I allowed my system to run all day
with no sent files appearing. I tried again this evening and the same
"Alert" message again appeared again. I decided to try Safe Mode and
see what would happen...with the same "Alert" message appearing.
I paid a visit to my SeaMonkey Profile (E:/SeaMonkeyProfile/Mail/Local
Folders/Sent folder and found it where it should be and with with
1,751,523 KB of data in the folder (I know, I need to do some house
cleaning in this folder if or when I can once again get it to show up in
the Sent window.
Please help if you can.
Thanks in advance for any help sent my way.

Frog, with SM running, can you check Tools->Switch Profiles and see if
you have more profiles than you would expect??
Next, close SM, go make yourself a drink, then, in Windows, try
Ctrl-Alt-Del to bring up the shut down page and select the "Running
Processes" (or whatever it's called) to see if you already have a
SeaMonkey running. If so, End Task, re-boot, and report back.
Daniel,
I received Paul's message, and I'm embarrassed that I overlooked the
obvious...that my settings were on Unread and not on All. I made the
change and all is well once more.
Thanks for coming to my call for help once again.
Frog
Oh, well, next time it happens, Frog, you've got three things to check,
and next time it may be one of mine!
