Listmembers:

I'm experiencing a lot of problems with damaged folders in my Voyager
installation.

This even happened to the Inbox of my main account and it's very
annoying because I lose mail in the process.

At some point, Voyager started to report that it couldn't read the
message database (messages.ebb) in some directory when viewing a folder
offering to repair. When you say 'Yes', it launches the repair
highlighting, but not selecting the folder in question. If I then
select the hightlighted folder and run the repair, the log says that it
recovered an x number of messages and saved 0 to parts, x is the number
of messages that are supposed to be in the folder.

After closing the repair dialog, however, there are no messages left in
view.

This has happened to a lot of folders now. My total message count in my
own account is now down from some 72.000 to 40.000 which means that
I've now lost over 30.000 messages including my entire tbbeta archive.

I have attempted to reload the missing messages from a recent back-up,
but that seems to have aggravated the situation.

One thing I also noted is that the foldername listed in the error
saying it couldn't read the messages.ebb is not the same as the
foldername listed when I look at the folder's properties.

So I have these questions:

1) What can I do to prevent this from happening again?
2) What is the best procedure to restore Voyager from a backup?
