First things first: go to yoru Squish directory and type "sqset 
o:\max\msg\private 0 0 30" Then run sqpack on that base and see what happens. 
I've found that sometimes it doesn't "catch" the first time, so you may need 
to go through that sequence again.
If that still doesn't work, and you have that message base defined in your 
squish.cfg, get a copy of SQPURGE and change the info in Squish.cfg and run 
"sqpurge \squish.cfg " and that'll trim ALL your bases to 
what is specified in your squish.cfg file. Now, I'd be careful about running 
it on ALL your bases, 'cause if you're like me, you have changed things since 
you last ran SQSET. :)
