Set the folder properties to keep messages for 1 day ( or 0 days) and purge and compress on exit. Now your messages are deleted as soon as they're one day old. Set the folder properties to keep 1 message in the folder. (Don't know whether zero messages is valid) and purge and compress on exit. Now you're messages are deleted as soon as you exit TB. Both options have the advantage that they're fully automatic, but that's their disadvantage too. The messages get also deleted when you don't backup. (you're ill, on holiday, whatever) The third option is to create a batch file (that's dos talk) to delete the messages.tbb and messages.tbi of the respective folders. Create a shortcut on your desktop to this batch file and you can delete all of your messages whenever you feel like it. When you're not familiar with batch files, post the folders you want to get rid of, including the full path of your account and I'll take a look at it. The latter way is best to be done without TB active, butt IIRC TB can be closed from a batch file. -- Groetjes, Roelof ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60q 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
