Over the past few weeks I have suffered a number of what can only be
described as serious problems with emailing using RISC OS.

For a couple of weeks, Pluto - my chosen program for years - has been
throwing up error message when I try to open freshly debatched messages
eg.

20 Apr 00:22:23 100   Title    : Error from Pluto
20 Apr 00:22:23 100   Task     : Pluto
20 Apr 00:22:23 100   Message  : Index may be corrupt at article
11/&2a40. Please try running 'Articles->Repair' from Pluto's icon bar
menu.
20 Apr 00:22:23 100

The references to the corrupt article varied every time this happened.

I could find no way of fixing this; running 'Articles->Repair' or in this
case 'Articles->Repair/Compact' excised a number of suspect articles
(those most recently debatched) but fixed nothing in that a subsequent
click on an article produced a similar error message relating to a
different article.

Using menu item 'Misc->Compile references index appears to rediscover
those files previously removed but any attempt to read them produces the
same error messages as before.

As I am writing this messages from Pluto keep popping up reporting that a
file may be corrupt eg.

Card file does not match article file 45...

Is my copy of Pluto corrupt? Or have I missed something essential?
