If I'm the 'Jack' to whom you're referring, my problem was that only
certain messages fetched the morning before the computer crash went
missing. We never lost an entire folder.

Had I known where TB kept it's messages in Vista, I could have
retrieved them from my off-site Carbonite backup. However, in my
clumsy attempts to find the storage location I accidently allowed
Carbonite to overwrite a good backup with a corrupted one which I
accidently created.

FWIW, I have since set up TB to perform daily backups, have told TB to
'keep messages on server for 5 days', have re-configured the computer
to NEVER sleep and have re-configured Carbonite to back up only very
late in the evening when the computer is no longer used for that day.

It's never too late to lock the barn door. You'll eventually get more
horses. Sorry I can't be of more help. Good luck.
