Build ID: 20171112125346
Steps to reproduce:
T'Bird often reports missing Summary Files when I:
1. Read e-mails and attempt to store them in local files using filters.
2. Infrequently reads e-mails and cannot place them in my Inbox because of missing Summary Files.
Actual results:
T'Bird reports missing Summary Files. See attached. Sometimes this occurs as a result of downloading messages. When I attempt to read more, the Summary files are missing.
Expected results:
If T'Bird cannot keep from losing the Summary Files, it should re-create them instead of simply reporting the error to the user.

The is often caused by issues related to network drives. See https://mzl.la/2iZuodh
I am not using a network drive. My tablet has a 1TB SSD which I have partitioned; the executable is on one of the partitions, the T'Bird profile is on another. It also happened when I had the profile on a USB Flash drive.
The reason I think it is a bug is because the T'Bird database program should be smart enough to detect the missing Summary File(s) and regenerate the one(s) that it finds are missing. Simply putting up a message reporting it missing and then ignoring the effect that the missing Summary file causes is simply not good programming, in my opinion!
