i have two email messages in my IMAP inbox (imap.myrealbox.com) that have a
blank subject and message body. The message date of both messages is 12/31/1969
7:00PM. i have tried to delete the messages by marking as deleted and then
compressing the folder (messages remain in folder marked as deleted), also I
have tried to copy to trash and delete immediately, but nothing happens.
I didnt have a problem with mozilla 1.4.
I cannot reproduce the problem, but i can say that the two messages appeared
seperately. i'm not sure but i think they were created when I moved a message
into another folder...but it doesnt happen every time...i've tried but cannot
reproduce it.
I've checked the folder using the web interface to my account but i cannot see
the messages.

Probably a corrupted INBOX.MSF file.
Look for this file in your profile, in the ImapMail folder in the folder for
which you observe this problem.
c:\Documents and Settings\YOURNAMEHERE\Application
Data\Mozilla\Profiles\default\8RANDOMCHARACTERSHERE.slt
Close all of Moz.
Move the MSF file to some other location, e.g. your desktop.
Restart mail and the file is rebuild and this time the strange message is gone.
If that's the case, delete the old MSF file.
In the mean time, I am NOT resolving this bug because i experienced the problem
myself yesterday as well. I want to know if something's changed that CAUSES this
bug and if a fix is needed.

Thanks, moving the inbox.msf file and then starting mozilla mail fixed the
corrupted messages. If it happens again, I'll leave another comment.

I have also seen this happen to a co-worker using Netscape 7.1
