You can close WinMail and then move the entire contents of the message store
directory to another directory and that will start it up fresh. You can
then drag the eml files (messages) back into the WinMail folders.
Microsoft is unlikely to fix any bugs in WinMail anytime soon, as it has a
very low priority. So workarounds and 3rd party programs are going to be
required, just as they were with OE.
