Weird, never happened to me. How often do you compress your folders?

That's not much, TB should be able to handle lots more. I've got
several folders with thousands of messages.

When did you run scandisk for the last time on the disk or defragged
it. Is your system otherwise instable? Virusscanner?

Would surprise me.

I'm not sure. What about a filter that extracts the attachments? Don't
know whether that keeps the association with the messages intact.
