Maybe I travel too much, maybe I store it too close to my mobile phone, many reasons. Recovering emails from a corrupted OTFE database is *not* possible. Of course, if you use OTFE on your harddisk, a problem is less likely than on a USB stick. But what if a problem occurs? Have you ever had a "damaged folder" during maintenance? Tell me you have recovered the messages. In plain, it is no problem to import them from the .bin file. -- Cheers, Thomas. Der Tabellenerste kann jederzeit den Spitzenreiter schlagen.
