---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Should have been smarter!!! Lost stuff. From: "T.L. Miller" <t...@tlmiller.net> Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2013 11:52:30 -0500 Too many apps open on my iMac w/ 4 gigs of RAM and I crashed PowerMail. Looks like all my messages since July 30, 2012 have disappeared. When my Mac started struggling a bit, I should have closed some apps. I do have a clone from Saturday on an external drive, so I may drag PowerMail over from there. I guess there's no way of salvaging things on the PowerMail app that lost the data -- or is there?

I guess I'll check all 5 check boxes under the maintenance heading. On Feb 12, 2013, at 12:20 PM, Peter Lovell <plov...@mac.com> wrote: T.L.
