MSF file for Inbox being rebuilt to wrong Inbox

Hi,

I repaired my inbox yesterday. I had many messages still in that inbox but after the repair I only see 5 messages. I looked in the directory my profile points to for my email and can see a large Inbox file - but I also see a very small Inbox.msf file. It is almost like the process of rebuilding is pointing to another Inbox file. See the picture attached.

I even tried to take a previous copy of the Inbox.msf file from a backup (it was 800 kb). I deleted the old Inbox.msf file and replaced with the larger 800 kb file. When I opened Thunderbird, it started to something: "Building summary file for inbox" and about a minute later those same 5 emails show - instead of the full Inbox I would have expected.

Is there anyway I can re-associate the Inbox.msf file process rebuild/repair to the correct Inbox file (the one that is 737 meg in this case)? I sure would like to get my inbox messages back (and file them away i/o leaving them there vulnerable to this kind of problem in the future).

Thanks in advance,

Patrick
