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, import messages from
the old Identity before deleting it (File Identities Manage Identities).

To avoid such corruption in futu

- Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local
folders created for this purpose.

- Empty Deleted Items folder daily.

- Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual
compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at
http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/files/maintain.htm.

- Do not attempt to close OE via Task Manager or shutdown your machine if
Automatic Compacting is taking place (WinXP SP2 only).

- Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such
corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.

Hello all,

I've looked through the posts in this group and Googled but unable to find
an answer. For some reason I have a "Inbox" folder under "Newsgroups"
that I never subscribed to. I've tried to unsubscribe and even deleted
the sub-folder in my dbx folder but no joy. When I click on the "Inbox"
folder OE tries to download headers, then pops up an error message that
there's no such group on the server. Can anyone help?? Sure would
appreciate it.
