Had a crash last week,
Loging drive too full
both pub and priv became corrupt
Had to do a forced repair to recover them
ran the consistancy repair program now all ok

Worked five days
now drive space no problem
both pub and priv not consistant and eventually had to do a forced repair again
ran the consistancy repair program


now information store service comes up
but the MTA service will not
running MTAcheck gives me a
"Queue-desc-object (id=1) initialization"
went to registry file to confirm where dat files are written too
went to that folder
noticed db000002.dat missing
copied db00002.dat from 5.5 exchange file
re ran mtacheck, still same results
copied mta folder
then copied db000002 through db000026.dat
re ran mtacheck, still same results

No backups to restore

I need your help
Thanks Mike
