I've seen the same sort of problem here, only with FAR fewer messages. Usually
once a message base hits 1000-1500 messages, messages start to disappear. If I
leave things too long, the index file gets corrupted and pointers start to go
into the middle of messages instead of the start.
(This is with message bases where messages are not allowed to expire for any
reason. The drive(s) involved have plenty of free space: 400M to 600M.)
What I end up doing is just renaming the message base entirely and keeping it
out of the FE config.
