[QUOTE="chrysalid, post: 1027625, member: 97155"] Hello, I'm a PC tech, with very little Mac experience :) I have a client that had their email open, things were extremely slow, so she knew something was wrong. She shut everything down - rebooted - and when she re-opened her mail, the inbox was empty. Since then she has received new messages, and they display fine, but the old messages have all disappeared. Is there a way to retrieve these messages? Any idea what could have caused this? She also complains that often, while in mail, she gets a message "Writing to Disk" - which takes a bit, and she's unable to do anything else. She says she isn't doing anything that should cause a 'write to disk'. Thanks in advance for any advice! Amber [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
