[pmmail-list] PMMail2K - Nested folders rearranged after crash - how correct?

[Maurice Guéron]

Hello  Hazen,
I haven't had this pro blem, so I can only make bland suggestions. First of course 
make a copy of the entire folder tree for safety. Second try re-indexing the folders. 
Mybe starting as far away from the root. 

Another approach suggested by Stan Sidlov:

Yes. The only way to handle it is to rename/delete the *.bag file in each affected 
*.FLD folder and then rebuild the index which should happen 
automatically when you try to open the folder from the interface.

|Due to a crash some time back my folders within one of my Email

|which had many subfolders, which I will call A1, A2, A3. . On of those
|subfolders, Ax contained four subfolders, Ax1, Ax2, Ax3 and Ax4.
|
|After the crash, Folder A and the subfolders were arranged differently
|as follows:  The mail folder was no longer Folder A, but was Folder Ax.
| One of the subfolders of Ax is what used to be Folder A, however
|nested within Folder A  are the 4 subfolders which used to be nested
|under Ax.  The rest of the subfolders in what used to be Folder A are
|now subfolders in Ax.
|
|This has lasted for some time and I don't have an up-to-date backup.
|
|This is the second time I have posted this.  First time got very little
|help except the suggestion that I should have had a backup. I need
|suggestions.  Please help.
