Are you sure that's what necessary to back up attachments? If so, why does TB! 
allow you to check the "attachment files" box for backup, and elect not to 
store them in message bodies, as I've done? If it was necessary to store 
attachments in message bodies to back them up, TB! would do so automatically. 

Furthermore, I'm positive the attachments have been backed up, because my .tbk 
file is 100MB and my successfully restored mail folder is only 30MB. The 
attachments are in the tbk file, they're just not being extracted and restored 
properly.

Just for the record, is anyone with TB! 2.12.00 able to successfully back up 
and restore attachments separate to message bodies? Would someone mind running 
a small test and checking that for me? I'm pretty sure this has always worked 
for me in the past.

Thanks :)
