Hmm. TheBat is currently taking 11644 kb according to task
manager. It's getting dangerously close to the 15 Mb that
Eudora 4.3 used to demand.
When I started using TB, memory usage was indeed in the
regions of 4 Mb. I suspect that the number of archived
e-mail is affecting memory usage (current amount of
messages: almost 3000, collected within a month).

One problem that I sometimes had was TB reporting "grid
index out of range" when I deleted a threaded message. And
then it wouldn't show that mailbox properly. The only
recourse was to close and restart TB.

It doesn't. I migrated from Eudora to TB a month ago and I
wouldn't advise anybody to start using Eudora 5.0.
