Regarding the glitch of groups of messages not appearing in profiles, it's a non-issue we won't be addressing unless our other work on folder_links accidentally fixes it. The new site doesn't even look at the Folder_Links table when listing messages in a profile. I suspect that the reason this version does is that in the older db systems it just wasn't feasible to do that kind of query on the message table itself, so it, instead, checked folder_links for all posts in the OutBox folder (I think that's folder 2)then went to the message table just for the message titles. That's not necessary in SQL Server 2K. Querying the message table itself for those records isn't very expensive, even with a huge message table. In any event, those posts are showing up fine on the Dev version. The Dev version of the site will largely use folder_links the same way the current site does, initially. I already know what changes I want to make to it, but they're time-consuming to implement, the current method does work, and it's a change I can make later.
