Richard,

You were almost on the right track. After copying messages manually into the ProcessingMessages folder, restart Xeams. Upon restarting, Xeams is going to move any email sitting in ProcessingMessages to LeftOverMessages and will process again.

If you have an option of stopping incoming emails from the Internet temporarily, do the following:

• Change the SMTP Port number in Xeams from 25 to something else so no one from the Internet can connect
• Copy *.eml files to ProcessingMessages. I would recommend running a test run on about 20-30 files before copying the entire dataset
• Disable Spam Filtering - this will make the processing much faster. With filtering enabled, it could take a long time to process good emails again.
• Restart Xeams
• Watch the files disappearing from LeftOverMessages folder
• Enable filtering when done and change the SMTP port back to 25
