[PRINT THESE INSTRUX FOR OFFLINE REFERENCE]
1a. Move any messages that you want to keep out of Sent Items and Deleted Items folders and into other local OE folders you've created for archiving (saving) such messages. 1b. Move 99% of your messages in your Inbox folder to other local OE folders, too. 2. Write down the location of your identity's store (http://www.insideoe.com/files/store.htm#storemain). 3. Close OE. 4. In Windows Explorer, navigate to your store folder, find & delete the files Outbox.dbx, Sent Items.dbx, and Deleted Items.dbx. 5. Your current Identity may be damaged, especially if its the default Main Identity. Try one or more of your accounts in a new Named Identity... File | Identities | Add new identity Assuming all is well, (a) compact all folders in the old identity, (b) import messages from the old identity into the new one, and then (c) delete the old one (File | Identities | Manage Identities). To avoid such problems in the future, adhere to the following caveats: - Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose. - Empty Deleted Items folder daily. - Frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm - Do not cancel Automatic Compacting, should it occur, and do not attempt to close OE via Task Manager or shutdown your machine if Automatic Compacting is taking place. - Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It can cause corruption (i.e., loss of messages) and provides no additional protection: Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email http://thundercloud.net/infoave/tuto...ning/index.htm -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Desktop Experience - since 2002 AumHa VSOP & Admin http://aumha.net DTS-L http://dts-l.net/ normski wrote: Hi can anyone give advice, each time i try to forward a message on to someone in my address book a box appears asking for username & password when it is already there, i click on ok & it reappears, click on cancel the forwarded messg goes into outbox & when i next open Outlook Express 6 i have the same problem until i delete the messg from outbox.
