Rebuild Mailbox doesn't affect the .SKindex files
Authored by: mkhaw on Oct 28, '03 12:37:20PM
Rebuild Mailbox, at least in Mail.app version 1.2.5 (v552) on 10.2.8, doesn't rebuild the .SKindex files. Instead, sometimes newer messages get added into an Incoming_Mail file in the .mbox directory (with a corresponding Incoming_Table_of_Contents file), and Rebuild Mailbox merges them into the corresponding mbox and table_of_contents files. To get the .SKindex files rebuilt, it appears necessary to delete them.
