| __________________________________ [Mar 5,2007 10:05pm - succubus ""] good idea but i don't get it: CAUSE This issue can occur if you are using an Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) e-mail account, and your connection to this account is dropped. Back to the top RESOLUTION To resolve this issue, re-connect to your IMAP e-mail account. |

In amongst those were three others: .old, .dbt and .avx. I deleted those and my problem has been solved and OE works a treat once again. Hope this helps someone. |
| __________________________________ [Mar 5,2007 10:11pm - succubus ""] Delete the DBX files for the folders that you are having a problem with. Outlook Express will rebuild them the next time it starts. ummm i don't trust that |
