It's been a long time since I've seen it happen, but sometimes, index
files get corrupted, and the effect is that it appears that mail has
been lost/deleted.

If compressing the folder in question doesn't work, then deleting the
appropriate .MSF forces a complete rebuild of the index from scratch.
Although going this route is something of a "last gasp" thing, I've
never seen that not work for me.

Yep, since killing all the .msf files I haven't sen the issue. Still, it's disconcerting to click through, say, messages in a folder called "Bob" and see nothing but messages about "Your natural gas bill." Weird!
