Backup problem
Hello, after installing a 'new' pc for a user, I've put back the backup. I'm just having one problem. I've also put back the sent file, without the msf file. So it generates a new msf file. Afterwards it shows that there are 0 mails in the sent folder. Strange, because when I open the sent file via notepad, I get all the mails. What happened and is there a way to get it back?

OK, I installed the extension, imported the file. After that it shows that there are a bit more then 2000 mails. After I lcik on the folder, it creates the msf file. After that it shows that there are no mails. Very strange, also because when I open the file via notepad, I can read all the mails.

Anyone has another possible solution? The user can read the file via notepad, but this is not the way to go.
Check your view settings. Make sure you are not seeing a filtered view.
I have used the extension and had no problem importing the mbox file.

And what could be the problem. I mean, where in view should I check?
jvuz, you wrote, "After I lcik on the folder, it creates the msf file. After that it shows that there are no mails."
You may be seeing a filtered view. Go to View > Arrange By > Current View. Make sure "Messages" is selected, and not Ready Only or another option.

I tried again just using the built-in import-tool of TB (I already tried that one several times in the beginning), and now it worked. Very strange but I'm happy it's solved.
Thanks guys for helping.
PS. Also a happy New Year and all my bet wishes for everyone of the team.

jvuz, glad you are able to import the file. Happy New Year to you also.
I posted the wrong extension. Here is the correct extension for importing mbox file
