I don't recall seing that. Always the opposite. But I must say I very rarely rebuilt my DB, so my experience is limited. What I saw though is that you should always use the "normal" rebuild at least until you see real problems, because the "advanced" rebuild has the power to mess up a DB and should be kept as a last resort. And keep the previous version of the DB for some time to revert to it if you later realize something went wrong (the original DB and index files are kept in place, just renamed). >From what I understand it is safe to operate with much >larger databases than mine. Probably safer than many other mailers anyway. Mine is currently aroud 160 MB. >Does the number of mailboxes have a safe limit? I am working withh >51currently. I don't recall hearing about such a limit. The DB Stats script tells me I have 122 folders and 14328 messages, others have much more. ---- VRic ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
