Apparently something has gone awry.
Tb tried to rescue your message base by creating part????.bin files (where ???? can be 0001 to 9999)
Move those .bin files to another location, rename them to messages.tbb and try to import its contents.
(Tools -> Import Messages -> From TB message base v2)

then... I have copied the bin files to another location and I renamed they in this way:
messages.tbb,messages1.tbb,messages2.tbb,etc
After I'm gone to "Tools -> Import Messages -> From TB message base v2",after pop up a windows "0 messages converted".
Had I to lose hope?

Note that TB will only look for messages.tbb files, not messages1.tbb etc.
Of course it's possible to check everything  with a text editor as TB's messages.tbb files are plain text, so you'll be able to recover most of them, with a ot of manual labour though. Provided that you don't use an encrypted message base.
You wouldn't happen to have some backup, would you?

You could try to open them with a text editor and see whether you can retrieve something.
