Merv,
Done all that. No change, still cannot send emails to 2 of 3 accounts
that use the same hosting service.
I am wondering if I should ditch all this and migrate everything to
Mac Mail but that begs the question of importing some form of
corruption.

Hi Bill,
Is the ‘corrupted mailbox’ problem corrected after following the previous
instructions?
I don’t know if these mail.insilico folders are still required as I don’t know
your setup or how you did the transition.
I would suggest you Quit Thunderbird first, before you move or delete the

See my comments below, however, the thing to note is that we
transferred from in-silico to get-on-line quite smoothly (6 months

Its the mid May thing that has me bothered. I do not use Thunderbird

Can now report success by deleting the relevant .msf files and re-
starting. Both accounts now work again. I don't think it matters
much what the files are called and that in-silico are not experiencing
any issues.

That’s good Bill,
As long as we get the result you wanted, I guess it doesn’t matter if we don’t
find the reason “How” the problem happened ;-)

Looks like I spoke too soon.I can send emails from one computer in
the house to the other but they do not work from external senders!
So any WAMUG folks with Thunderbird expertise? Please let me know.

If not, do all the usual prep: backup, run disk utility etc and then
download Version 5 and see whether that has any effect.

Hi Ronni,
This turns out to be more complicated. About six months ago, we
switched from hosting at in-silico to get-on-line now. Everything

ADSL) everything comes to 1. an iMac and 2. My laptop.
About May 12th.

Hi Bill,
To restore corrupted mailboxes:
1. Quit Thunderbird.
2. In your profile folder, open the Mail subfolder, and then the subfolder for
that mail account.
Delete the *.msf file for the folder (mailbox) that is giving you problems--
e.g., if your inbox is the one with problems, delete
Thanks very much I'll have a crack at that later.
