Hello,
I'm planning a cleanup on my email server and i'm seeing 17k+ of unexpected blobs in the blob check process. I need some information on this, what causes unexpected blobs and is it safe to delete them?
Thank You,
Paul.

I did lookup on these wiki: Ajcody-Notes-No-Such-Blob - Zimbra :: Wiki
and these posts: Total Innodb/MySQL failure No such blob -> delete references
I'm still left in a complete void. I have no idea how to fix these problems, and I would rather not loose about 17k emails from my server.
