Corrupted mailbox?

2000-09-28 Thread Arno van Stralen

Hi all,

For a few days by now, TB! refuses to import messages for one of my four
accounts specified. It retrieves all message headers correctly, but
things are starting to get tricky when TB!'s downloading them. The circle
indicating the total amount of bytes to be retrieved, is filled for
only a tenth or so with black space when all messages are retrieved.
Subsequentially, TB! hangs itself stating it's busy importing
messages.

The only reason for this strange behaviour that crosses my mind is
some kind of corrupted mailbox. What would be the best way to solve
this?

I have encountered a similar problem once. The problem was indeed a
corrupted messages.tbb file. IIRC i created another folder, say 'foo',
closed TB! and moved the inbox-messages.tbb into this folder (with
your favourite file manager or windows explorer). Then i restarted TB!
and was able to move most of the mails from the foo folder back to the
inbox.
