Default Blocked Senders List

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
Joni

Create a new Identity. Do not use the word main in the name.
Import your messages from the old Identity.

Default Blocked Senders List

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.

See Bruce's reply.

You can have a maximum of 4,096 Message Rules & Blocked Senders: Maybe you'd
blocked too many senders?

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

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