Thanks for these sites. I didn't know they existed.

It sounds as if there's a 3rd party program interfering with OE. Disable
email scanning, any antispam software or anything else that might involve
OE. Then see if that fixes it.

Does anybody know what an assertion is?
I get this message : Debug assertion failed.
For info. on how your program can cause an assertion failure see
the visual C + + documention on asserts.
I don't understand any of this. I didn't try to debug anything.
