Jumping in here... (pending a report from Tim — THDW <capitainemoede>)


I read the advice with interest, as I've had problems for some time  
with _most_ of the "open reply" links being broken.  So I tried it,  
but when selecting multiple mailboxes, the "Rebuild" menu was greyed  
out (OS 10.4.11).  So I rebuilt each mailbox individually, and it  
seems to have restored function!

So Thanks to you all for the input— especially Hamid for the solution.
