Compact all OE folders manually and frequently and Automatic Compacting
should never rear its ugly head.

Thanks for the reply and links......No, OE just keep asking me
I did once and lost msg from view in OE. Finally found them,
can't remember where now. Just don't want to loose them
again or if stored somewhere on my hard drive I just wanted
to know where and if I can change the name.
I've been having problems with OE (this may be why) from
another post, where I lost my original address book. Solved
that problem but didn't want to create another one with the
compacting.
