Alexander, I'm really happy to see you putting your good mind to Perry's problem! Don't miss that his message base is encrypted through OTFE. I think, in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] , he gives a clue that the problem is a corrupted message base. Because, with the folder containing Mail renamed, he didn't get the cascading AVs when he tried to launch. Or is my thinking on that faulty? I'm quoting what Perry said, below: P>> For what it's worth, the OFTE installation of The Bat! doesn't have a P>> mail directory under C:\Program Files\The Bat!. Instead there is a P>> folder under C:\Documents and Settings\Perry Nelson\Application Data P>> called The Bat! Pwd where the folder and message base is located. When I P>> renamed that folder and tried to open The Bat!, I got an error message P>> saying, "Cannot open file 'C:\Documents and Settings\Perry P>> Nelson\Application Data\The Bat! Pwd\ikey.id.' The system cannot find P>> the path specified." But at least doing that didn't produce cascading AVs. Perry still has the password. But he can't get TB! to launch, thereby decrypting the mails. Well, you probably already did understand all this. But Perry's difficulty has wider implications, for other TB! users, as both you and he noted. So I hope either you or another of the subscribers here who have programming skills will have some idea of how he can access those encrypted mails. -- Best regards, Mary The Bat! 3.81.14 Beta on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.80.06 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
