Hello TBUDLers,

After losing half my msg base and my address book (Friday 13th? - no,
not really, it happened yesterday) I followed Roelof's advice on
creating fictitious accounts. I thought I was out of the woods, until
I discovered that nothing that I could do, would bring back my address
book. I opened the address book and tried

>File, Import From, and even
>File, Open Address Book

as well as the various permutations therein.
No luck

I have now spent several hours trying to recover my address book,
which has somehow got badly corrupted. At one point, there was a huge
list of cabalistic signs or gibberish. I've got Intermediate and
Trusted Root CA, but none of my own addresses.

What annoys me most, is that I have been backing up religiously (at
least once a week), using the internal function (Tools, Backup).
Now that I need to reinstall with Tools, Restore - and irrespective of
the date of the back up - the Restore refuses to perform, apart from
doubling up the number of messages in the msg base.

I used tbkdigger to explore TB's internal backups. It was interesting
to see the names of the files and attachments in each account, but
even with Tbkdigger I could not see my address book.

Surely it is backed up along with the msg base?
If so, where is it?
And why doesn't Restore do what it is supposed to do and roll
everything back to where it was last week/last month ?

Regards,
Maurice
