Default deleted items

For a corrupted Deleted Items folder:
- Close Outlook Express.
- OE5+: Locate the file Deleted Items.dbx in the mail directory and delete
it. You can use Start, Find (or Search), Files or Folders, "Deleted
Items.dbx" to find it. On Win2000 you need enable the display of Hidden
or System files in the folder options and XP you need to use the advanced
options to find Hidden or System files. (You can also determine the
location by looking in OE at Tools, Options, Maintenance, Store Folder.)
- Open Outlook Express again. It will create a new empty Deleted Items.
