Do you usually get lots of tar output when running amrecover's extract?


tar: ./forrest/nsmail/people.sbd/.Bob.summary: invalid sparse archive member
tar: Skipping to next header

You need to use either tar-1.13.25 or tar-1.15.1 in order to restore from this archive. Your version (which is probably 1.14.x) has problems restoring sparse files, and any file following a sparse one. Have a search in the archives for more information.
