Hi, I removed everything in /home/user/.osso/osso-email/ /home/user/apps/email/ and rebooted the device, then manually defined all my mailboxes. This solved my problem. I identified these directories by looking into the file /etc/osso-backup/applications/osso-email.conf, which contains the locations that are routinely backuped by the osso-backup application. Btw. I did not remove /home/user/.osso-email/, which contains the AddressBook.xml, thus all email addresses were preserved. Of cause, by deleting the contents of the two directories above, I lost all emails in the Inbox, Outbox and Drafts folder, but these were inaccessible anyway due to the corruption. As a suprise to me, all emails in the Archive folder, that previously seemed to be gone, reappeared after I emptied the two directories. Magic. Guess these must be stored elsewhere, probably on the RS-MMC? regards, Armin. On Monday 13 March 2006 10:25, Armin M.
