Thanks for the quick reply!

I understand (as I now solved the problem my own :-). However, keeping
the attachments in the message would likely not be an option for me - I
receive large attachments regularly and I'm not sure how TB! would
handle an 1 GB message database - any experiences in this area?

Thanks for the tip, but I resolved it using a text search and replace
tool (thank god you didn't encrypt the message database ;-). It's back
working, all attachments back.
