This is due to a recent OE update, (KB923694). Now when you compact, a
copy of your dbx files are sent to the Recycle Bin in the event that
something should go wrong and messages, or entire folders, are lost when
you are compacting.


I've read this a couple of times, but there are no dbx files in my recycle
bin, and I've *manually* used the Compact feature twice in the past month. I
wonder if the files are automatically deleted from the recycle bin after
compacting is done.
