The .UID file indexes messages within each associated .MBX file. If deleted or out of sync with the .MBX file length, it will be recreated the next time the mailbox is read. With the exception of disk and CPU time, manually concatenating .MBX files is harmless. -Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------ To Unsubscribe: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html List Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/imail_forum%40list.ipswitch.com/ Knowledge Base/FAQ: http://www.ipswitch.com/support/IMail/
