Running OE 6, with Win XP Pro, SP2, all updates. Assume (correctly) for the
moment that I observe ***all*** precautionary measures you've ever heard of
with regard to keeping data safe in OE.

Symptom: Every couple of months, I'll click on one newsgroup (never the same
one - no pattern I can discern) and OE will crash. If I restart, and avoid
checking that newsgroup, it'll run fine. The only fix is to delete
folders.dbx, but of course, that results in my having to drag all my email
subfolders back into place.

Is this just something we have to live with?
