[]....however any of the old deleted PMs aren't recoverable unless we get you to restore to an old db prior to the upgrade and work out the initial problems. [/]

I don't care about the old (really old) messages that I deleted myself, it is the more recent messages that I didn't delete but disappeared anyway - somewhere during the process. I have the feeling all these invisible messages are still in there somewhere..

See my w3t_Messages table; 7566 rows, 5.98 MB Data_length, 212 KB Index_length. Which is pretty much what I expected.

I'd love you to help me investigate that a little more!

Tjerk.

(where btw. did that old function to count and delete older private messages go?)
