The fact that there _is_ an undocumented command to 'fix' this if it happens, is suspect enough for me to be worried about the integrity and security of my data. -- cheers, Indie_Dev Current beta is 3.99.24 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

At first I thought that I had simply forgotten to export (from Thunderbird) those folders. So, I manually created one of them so that I could use the tools import. Thats why I got the error that the folder already existed - though I couldn't see it. I didn't get _any_ option to use the initial folder though. > So, taking the above into account, you should be glad the trick works in your > case! :-) I guess. -- cheers, Indie_Dev Current beta is 3.99.24 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

This issue is beginning to cause me grave concern. I noticed today that I was missing some folders. So I did the ctrl+alt+shift+L trick and it found them. Less than an hour later, I noticed once again, that I still missing folders. Did it again, and they came back. So, at which point do I actually start losing emails? And why is this happening?!?! -- cheers, Indie_Dev Current beta is 3.99.23.3 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

So, uhm, what does it do exactly? -- cheers, Indie_Dev Current beta is 3.99.21 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
