It was the "User Prefs" file which I double-clicked on, and I completely lost my old database as a result - presumably because this file is in the same folder as the database file and it overwrote the old database when it created the new one. Fortunately, my mail gets backed up every night so I could restore it and then recollect today's mail. Jeremy
