Is it because of the large message bases?

If  not,  I  can  tell you the reason: it is not the FAT32. It is that
those  users  have  Compress  at exit checked for the Inboxes. When TB
quits,  sometimes the compressing is not finished until TB is shutdown
by   itself/Windows/user/not   enough  disk  space/too  little  system
resources etc.

I have seen broken message bases, I guess less than you, but this was
the cause _always_.

Another  issue  is  that  many  people  use  FAT32  partitions as data
partition  (and  store  TB  files  on it) to have gate between Win and
Linux...

And if I see well, then this is the end for Linux/WinE/TB, right?

Win98SE users?

Another  question:  what  about Voyager? That runs normally on a FAT32
partition...
