Unless you're sending real big files or lots of them, your outbox shouldn't get that big, so you might be on to something. To eliminate other possibilities, follow this procedure. Close TB (without purge & compress) Reboot your computer Check your mail partition with scandisk Delete all temporary files from your disk (clean disk, or whatever it's called in the explorer) Disable your virusscanner and firewall Delete the messages.tbb and messages.tbi files from your outbox (Which one is so big? The .tbi shouldn't get into that league) You need more than three or four times as much free space than your biggest folders on the disk where Windows stores it's temporary files (if you don't know what disk that is, it's probably C: ) Start TB Purge and compress all folders for an account If it doesn't work now, you've got yourself a bug. Since you're using a beta, you could go back to 1.62i and follow this procedure again. If 1.62i produces results, then you were having a beta problem and you should pursue the matter on tbbeta. If 1.62i fails too, the problem is more basic. -- Groetjes, Roelof ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
