Database Corruption 10 users in one week

[TimdeJong]

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel Email Client: Exchange The last couple of days some the 15 MacbookPro's in our company have had database corruptions. The rebuild was succesfully, and users can keep continue there work. But i'm still wondering what caused this sudden corruption on 10 users at the same time.

Can you help me in which direction i should be looking?

thanks in advance

The last couple of days some the 15 MacbookPro's in our company have
had database corruptions. The rebuild was succesfully, and users can
keep continue there work. But i'm still wondering what caused this
sudden corruption on 10 users at the same time.

Could it be a really badly formatted e-mail everybody received??
Something with the server maybe??
I don't see what else 15 different computers could have received that
lead to a massive corruption like that. Unheard of as far as I can tell,

So, a badly formatted e-mail can corrupt my complete database?

I've seen weird things like that once in the past. Entourage had
issues in the middle of the download for the e-mail and the database
was getting corrupted.
Not sure exactly what in the e-mail did it. Maybe the database was
already in bad shape before.
In any case, I can't think of much that would lead to a corruption of
15 databases on your network (and not for anybody else in a similar
scale and timing).
