When you're purging your folders you're marking those messages as deleted that are too old or too many when compared to the folder properties. That is 'marking as deleted', not deleting them from the messagebase, but only rendering them invisible. Like many databases TB only marks a message as deleted when you delete it or move it another folder, no matter if that's done automaticaaly on exit, via a filter or manually. The compressing part is to actually delete from the database those messages that were maked as deleted. That's why the compressed command ends with a pop-up screen that tells you how many bytes you've saved, since TB's messagebases get smaller. -- Groetjes, Roelof -- ________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
