Its like removing unwanted books from the library by taking the index cards. There seem to be less but they are still there... Clemens but they must be very big, those indexes ... I mean there is a Clemens difference between 55MB and 314K ^^ My mistakeas my answer wasnt clear.., cards are gone but books still there. Like most filing systems, even normal hard disk. The data doesnt get deleted. Just the index. Its one of the ways they rolled up a drug smugglers operation years ago as they had their data/addresses in a Psion organiser. They managed to delete the data but that didnt mean it wasnt there... Its also the reason that when a filing system gets a problem the sooner fixed the better as one can reorder a few mislaid cards by checking where they belong but if you dump the box on the floor you got a life long job... well known example is the scandisk or equivalent wanting to check your disk after a bad shutdown. Let it do it. Just zap what it says is mixed up. Normally all is ok after that as all that gets zapped are incomplete files. if you donot and it gets reused in places where the OS thinks there is no data you get a real problem...

Clemens First, I today, reapaired it myself. I just renamed that file to the Clemens message file and voila I have my inbox back. You are lucky and I would recommend creating some folders and split that mail up.. I know I can loose a mailbox but I will likely never lose all unless I delete them.. You may have run out of memory, or some other resource related problem so the bat may have stopped and grabbed whatever it had and saved it off as temp file. It also means I guess you may have lost some mail if you are unlucky An inbox of 54 mb is a bit dangerous... Clemens previous errors ? none, I just started the bat and there the error Clemens came. It's very strange. btw, the .tmp file had the size of 54 MB ...

Re[2]: ERROR ... please help ...
Hello Mark, Your info brings up a question of mine. Does the program compress the messages files at anytime? When messages are deleted, those holes in the database could very well lead to trouble. Is there a compress, re index, backup routine anyplace and if not would it be a feature for 1.4, 2.0 and so forth? --- Thanks, John Tuesday, January 11, 2000, 2:22:09 PM, you wrote: MW Hi Clemens - MW Tuesday, January 11, 2000, 3:58:46 PM, you wrote: CGS Hello The Bat!
