It would be great to have dynamic/intelligent attachment tracking so that this doens't happen in furture versions.  Also, a means to fix in upon install of the new version would be GREAT.

== Intelligent Indexing ==
The other day, using my Rollback RX Pro program, I reverted to a previous snapshot of my system, then, using Superflexible File Synchronizer, I restored my data and configuration files so all would be current.  My Eudora Mail folder is included in that although don't back up the search folder.  When I ran Eudora again, X1 didn't apparently do some sort of a check up on any changes to folders to ensure their dates and file sizes matched what it had before.  It simply ran a fast update as ususal.  I didn't realize there was a problem until I tried to find a specific email.  At the beginning January I renamed its folder then created a new one with the same original name (keeping my filters intact) for this year.  Apparently X1 didn't catch that becuase when I searched for the email in the folder with the new name, it said it couldn't find it, but when I included the folder with its original name, it reported it as residing there even though it doesn't.  I have now deleted my search folder and am starting from scratch with the indexing. As I have several thousand folders in Eudora, this is a time consuming process.  Upon restoring to the previous snapshot, the indexing had the date as the previous snapshot.  X1 didn't apparently rescan to catch everything created or modified since that date.
