Hi paul
No I didn�t get the unix code but I did do a sherlock search using MUD. Got
three files (????) and they all opened up with the same info - nothing,
tried the trash - wasn�t there either.
When I was referring to my frustration it was unrelated. The problem was
that when I launched entourage it gave me a new window which I didn�t pay
close enough attention to - "do you want to use as main email account?" (or
something to that effect) - point is i've never seen it before. Before I
questioned it I just clicked "no" and ended up with a clean database.
How would I have deleted the folder? Without knowing it?
