   Hi Kim,   
      
   As far I can see, nobody has been facing in the past with an issue like mine.   
      
   I have a few questions, maybe you could answer them.   
      
   The first one: Maybe in the first steps at initial deploy of BBBS (a few years   
   ago) I did something wrong like pack users, pack and move some conferences   
   while some users were online (probably they were writing new mails)... Do you   
   think that now, with an increment of users (from 5 to 30 concurrents), this   
   could be a cause for the strange behavior on my system? If yes, why now?   
      
   The second one: I assume and I agree that you can't spend a lot of time   
   thinking about how can be fixed this, and in parallel some of my users are   
   asking me for the resolution of this issue. I'm thinking to build a new server   
   and install from scratch a BBBS system, avoiding prior mistakes. I know that   
   some config files can be used by the new system, and I assume that some other   
   configs (like the bbbs users) can be lost. I could reimport the current mail   
   (well, all the mail that has been exported) from a downlink that I use like   
   backup. There is some way to export/import all the messages from each   
   conference on the current message base or I assume that's lost for my new BBBS?   
      
   Thanks in advance as usual, Kim.   
      
   -   
   A reveure!!
