Hi Little Stevie Wonder!!

Thank goodness I read thru the posts. I just discovered 550 meg of
backed up OE stuff in my Delete Bin and wondered what in h*ll was going
on. I had removed IE7 (ptui!!) a few days ago and thought that was the
culprit.

NO.....MS in its infinite wisdom has seen fit to spring yet another
surprise on us without mentioning what will happen. (VBG)

OK....now I will go and delete all of these *.bak files now that I see
you guys are OK with that......I think. I will await your approval, Sir
Stevie.

And will also clean out the excess **** from my Inbox and Outbox (PA
Bear knows I am bad with that, grin).

Merry Christmas to all of the MVP's on here that I have known for a
decade (almost). Elayne and I still laugh at what she did to your cat
way back when, Steve. (eyeball)

Cheers....Heather/Figgs

I compact folders each night manually in OE and have never had any
issues with this procedure. The folders compress and that's it.
Just tonight, OE started copying all the dbx files to the recycle bin
as I manually compress. They show up there with a BAK extension.
Can anyone shed any light on this for me. I don't think I've changed
any settings and this has never happened before.
If possible I need to know what's happening and why and how to
correct it if it's an issue please.
Thank you
Dudley Henriques
