Default Blocked Senders List

You're welcome. The GUID is that long string of letters and numbers. You
found it. You just didn't realize it. wink

Thank you so much Bruce...that worked! I needed that roadmap. However, I
didn't find any "GUID" in the list...is that significant?

The Blocked Senders registry key is damaged.

1.. Close OE and then In Regedit, navigate to this key:

|--HKEY_CURRENT_USER
|-----Identities
|--------{GUID}
|-----------Software
|--------------Microsoft
|-----------------Outlook Express
|--------------------5.0

where GUID is the Global Unique IDentifier for your Identity.

2.. Under that key, you will find the following sub-keys, among
others:

|-----------------------Block Senders
|-----------------------Rules
|-----------------------Signatures

Select the Block Senders Key and delete it. Blocked Senders will be
empty, but you can rebuild it now.

I am using Windows XP Home with IE8, OE6. Just recently my blocked
senders list cleaned itself out (?) and now I can't get anything to
stay. What's up with that?
Thanks
