Local folder is stuck building summary since last time messages from inbox where moved there: no other operation such as repairing can be done.
A few days go i moved a few emails from the inbox to a local folder -- which i do several times a day. In the process TB got stuck -- i could not see the body of any other email, a part from the last one on which i was on when transferring. This happens from time to time, especially with slow internet connections. So i simply closed TB, as i always do, and reopened. As a result, this time the local folder was empty. So i clicked to repair it. But i go the message that the folder was busy. It turns out the folder was building the summary. So i waited. But some time after, the folder was still busy. So i deleted the local folder msf and reopened TB: same thing, still building the summary So i deleted the inbox msf and reopened TB: same thing, still budding the summary. Now it is stuck since a few days, and i really need to recover emails from that local folder. Any suggestion? Many thanks
