C2>> I am experiencing a curious problem. Over the last couple weeks, some C2>> of my e-mail folders have gotten very sluggish. Clicking on old or C2>> new mail in these folders takes a few seconds to respond (the response C2>> used to be instant) and deleting mail takes a few more seconds (it C2>> also used to be instant).
C2>> Compressing the folders doesn't help and my hard disk has almost no C2>> fragmentation. According to Maintenance Centre, no folders are C2>> damaged. The problem folders are small -- fewer than 1,000 messages C2>> and the messages.tbb files are less than than 10MB. Interestingly, C2>> folders with more than 7,000 messages and messages.tbb files of nearly C2>> 2GB are still lightning fast. C2>> Is anyone else experiencing this problem? TF> Yes. I have had this with a folder two or three times over the years. C2>> Any solutions? TF> Roelof was right on the spot. I do it slightly differently: Copy the TF> messages somewhere (for example to a newly-created "temporary TF> folder"), delete the message.tbb and message.tbit files whil TB! is TF> closed, and then copy the messages back. If all is OK, you can delete TF> the "temporary folder" again. Unfortunately, neither suggestion helped. Any other ideas would be appreciated. Fortunately, none of my big, critical folders have been affected/afflicted, so I'm limping along for now. -- Code 2 :canadaflag: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The Bat! version 4.0.24 on Windows XP Service Pack 3 On the menu of a New Orleans restaurant: Blackened bluefish ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.0.24.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
