Using Mint Linux 9, have a corrupted drive, having to start over on most of it. Thunderbird was set to downland and then delete from server -- wonn't do that again.
Dub, I would hazard a guess that most of the posters here have been victimized by a corrupt hard drive at least once in their lives... I hope the rest of your data recovery goes smoothly!
