I was just executing a COMPRESS inside MAIL (after having read my INFO-VAX
messages, needed to clean out the disk), and got an incoming mail message
notification; I exited from MAIL and deleted my MAIL.OLD file (this was
all still happening from typed-ahead commands), did a few other things,
then went back into MAIL, and - surprise - no NEWMAIL folder.  No new
messages in the MAIL folder.  Message vanished.  Anyone experienced this?
