Hi Roelof! The messages that came back, after rebuilding the .tbi file were only those that I had expected; no perviously filtered or deleted emails showed up.
And, I'm pretty sure that all the mail disappeared immediately after an Access Violation error, and this was not the result of my somehow deleting the messages. I get Access Violation errors a few times each day. I'd be interested to know if others are still getting these as well. I do compress all folders, from time to time. I've also not seen any significant delay on larger folders, but this is a pretty fast machine, so that may be why. And, you are right - I should archive older messages. :) -- Cheers!

I use 5000 msg's (or 20 > MB, whatever comes first) as a useful limit. ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60k FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
