Subject: TB 2.03.06 destroying inmail folders

Hello all.

I agree 102% although it did it once, once was enough.

After updating to TB 2.03.06, it read in all the EMail accounts I use under it -- five 
at this stage -- and as I went to Compress the most vital one, that had about 145 
messages archived in it from last tear, an account that has since been closed -- TB 
promptly destroyed that EMail folder / account EMail database totally.

I can see the headers, but nothing else works.

Looking at the actual "destroyed" EMail file, I can see that all the EMail is there, 
but I can't see it to save
individual messages, can't TB read any of it, can't TB export it, can't TB export any 
part of it. Looking at the file with ANOTHER PC on my LAN, that has an older TB 
version, it too can't do anything with it, either.

So, I am left with utter destruction, although I am careful to not wipe that file, in 
the hope and prayer that it can be saved yet.

What to do?  That file is utterly critical, it contains vital archived EMail.

In my humble opinion, BEFORE doing any such file operations, TB should FIRST backup 
said file, even as a temp file on the users HD.

THEN TB can operate on what's in memory, with, of course, the option to use / bring in 
the backed-up file should anything happen to the file being TB operated on.

This is a terrible situation, and likely only until the root cause is found, but what 
IF the now "destroyed" file can't be saved?

What am I to do?

Joe
