I've got the same thing, but I don't think it's happening to too many people.

There's a glitch in a number of public messages in the folder_links table. That message is in your Folder 1 and in someone else's Folder 2. Neither of whom is sender or recipient.

The bug is really in the data in this case and I suspect that SI has some kind of workaround to get past that.

Once I get the folder_links table down to a manageable size on the current version, I'll be able to programmatically fix those glitches.

I did a test run on the Dev version and deleting all folder_links rows where the folder is 3 (Trash) and deleting all where folder is 1 *and* the message was sent by the Silicon Investor account, the table came down from 19.7M rows to 2.6M. Huge difference. I'm sure deleting the glitched rows is good for another thousand or so. I think I've got about 100 of them myself.

Edit: It appears this glitch applies only to public messages.
