Administrators • worried: unwanted mailpurge ?!

Hello,
today I discovered all of the old messages (10 years worth) in one account were missing / deleted.
looking at the backups, the deletion happened sometime last week.

I'm reasonably sure that there are no retention/disposal rules set - meaning every message in the account should stay until explicitly deleted
as the messages were in several (now empty) subfolders, also pretty sure the deletion was not a user mess-up.

Now I'm restoring the last good backup to a temporary account and will move the messages back to the primary one.
mainly because I don't know if directly restoring to the actual account is a good idea (duplicates ?)

during this operation, I checked the mailbox.log for a progress status of the restore.
I came across this !!??:Does this mean the info account is now being purged? (info was not the account affected)
or is this a byproduct of the restore - the lines referring to the contents of the backup?

Any reassurance is greatly appreciated
