Email Catastrophe
Gahh. That wasn't fun.
I've lost about a month's worth of email.
I had to re-install Windows on my laptop, which I use for email. Before the hard drive got re-formatted, I used backup software (MozBackup, may villany be heaped upon its name) recommended on the Mozilla Thunderbird website. A little check appeared to show that it had saved my emails in an archive file.
After I re-installed Windows I learned it didn't save any emails at all (may a thousand camels trample their kitchen garden). I have an older version of my Inbox saved elsewhere, but I've lost quite a bit.
So if you're one of those folks who sent me a charming email in December and I haven't gotten back to you, that's why. Please send anything I may need that you've sent in the last month!
Gene Ha, hoping 2008 will get less annoying with time.
