    Morning.
    My machine: PowerBokk G4 1.67 GHz, 1 GB RAM, 80 GB HDD, MacOS 10.4.6
    (German), one email POP account.
    My Mail.app handles approximatly 40'000 emails. When I toggle between
    different postbox directories, it takes up to more than a minute until
    the mails in the postbox are displayed. So I thougt to rebuild the
    mailbox.
    First I made a copy of ~/Library/Mail and ~/Library Mail Downloads.
    Then I rebuild my INBOX. But now more than 8'000 emails are not
    displayed. This are emails received betweend the October 10th 2005 and
    April 7th 2006. But if I search for keywords in these emails by
    Spotlight, the emails are found.
    So I've replaced ~/Library/Mail and ~/Library Mail Downloads by the
    first saved copies.
    But now the content of all emails in the above mentioned time aren't
    displayed. A message appears:
    »Die E-Mail von "..." <...> mit dem Betreff ,,..." wurde nicht vom
    Server geladen. Sie müssen mit diesem Account eine Verbindung zum
    Internet herstellen, um die E-Mail zu laden.«
    [The email from ... subject ... has not been retrieved from the server.
    You must connect the internet to receive the email.]
    But I'am connected and the message is not on the server but on my
    machine. Spotlight finds it.
    What must I do that Mail.app finds and displays all messages correctly?
    TIA and kind regards. Friedrich
