Hi Roelof, Thanks -- that did the trick and I've now got my messages back. Strangely, when I searched for lost folders, TB found 27 -- the backup folders that I created on another drive! So, having found lost folders and deleted the TBI files on the "empty" ones, I have two copies of most of my mail folders and nearly all the missing messages. I now need to spend some time copying these and then killing dupes. Again, many thanks. -- Geoff Lane Cornwall, UK [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Using The Bat! v1.61 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 I procrastinate, therefore I will be. ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
