You wont have lost anything, the raw email download files will still 
exist in the backup directory in !NewsDir.MsgServe.Backup

Mine doesn't seem to be automatically cleaned out, so went back years 
until I manually pruned it.

Look for the line setting the dynamic area size in 
!Messenger.Severs.!MsgServe.!Run2 and make sure its set to larger than 
the largest file in the backup directory.

Go back through backup for any files which are larger than the old 
settings, as they are ones which have probably failed in the past. 
Create a temporary mail folder and drag the files in to that.

The backup directory is the fail safe.
