Hello Folks,

Running Mozilla 1.7.3 and this morning it suddenly showed a very small
Inbox. From the thousands of emails in there all but 30 or so have
vanished. The Inbox file still has the large size it always had so they
must be there (somewhere...) but they just won't show anymore. Instead,
there was a strange empty and unopened "email" with a 1969 date, nothing
in its message body, no subject, nada. Tried "View-All", nothing.
Anybody have a clue what happened or what to do?

It's backed up except for those that came in overnight but some of these
would be important.

Jim: I know, I know, maybe I should use a more reliable separate Email
program. Mozilla has a bit too much bloat for my taste by now. Or maybe
I go back to DOS where stuff like this simply doesn't happen.

You didn't need that E-mail anyway ;-)

Why don't you give Eudora a try now, particularly since it's now free
and open-source?

I've been using Eudora since it first got started.

Aside: Bug in Mozilla Firefox?

If I fire up Firefox, then open a PDF (Acrobat v7) on a website there
is lock-up.

However, if Acrobat is already loaded, it doesn't lock-up.

Anyone else experienced this?
