Well, not too often on most of them. I've got the inboxes and trash
folders set to compress on exit.

Thousands of messages would scare me to death. I try to keep mine down
to a manageable size. With the inline attachments the message base was
17MB in size. That doesn't seem unreasonable, but it's big in relation
to the number of messages.

When I made the last changes to the options it was because I was
moving to a new win2k server, to the whole machine is only about a
month old. I hate to admit this about a Windows system, but it's been
very stable. It gets a clean bill of health and I've run TB for a few
years now with no problems.

I don't have a problem with extracting the attachments and deleting
them from the original messages. I just don't see that there's a way
to get them out of the message base file and still keep that
association. I may have to resort to mailing them to myself and
deleting the original.
