That's far too much! I didn't know The Bat! warns about it, but right
it is! Incoming mails should be moved or filtered to a folder where
they belong, and the Inbox compressed.

Why only one half?

Create a new folder in The Bat! named "test". Close The Bat!. Open
your file manager and copy the TBB file to "test" (overwrite the
existing TBB). Start The Bat!. Open the folder "test". The messages
should be there.

Never argue with an idiot. He will draw you down to his level
and then beat you with experience.
