In my experience, every email client Fs up badly every do often, and damages things. Outlook Express certainly does. I've heard horror stories of Outlook doing it. And yes, Thunderbird does it too. That's one of the main reasons why I use IMAP. All your email gets stored on the IMAP server, and you use Thunderbird to connect and download messages as you view them. When things go sour, you delete your profile, create a new one, and all your email is still there. This is but one argument for using IMAP. -- Daniel Kasak IT Developer NUS Consulting Group Level 5, 77 Pacific Highway North Sydney, NSW, Australia 2060 T: (+61) 2 9922-7676 / F: (+61) 2 9922 7989 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: http://www.nusconsulting.com.au --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
