General OE Caveats:

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

- Empty Deleted Items folder daily.

- Frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working
offline". More at http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm

- Do not cancel Automatic Compacting, should it occur, and do not attempt to
close OE via Task Manager or shutdown your machine if Automatic Compacting
is taking place.

- Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It can cause
corruption (i.e., loss of messages) and provides no additional protection:

Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email

It happened overnight, no problems yesterday, I double clicked on my
outlook
express icon this morning and the screen came up. On the bottom on the
screen it said connecting but it never did, so I tried to close the page
and it said not responding and then it said me to end now to cancel the
page.

If I am in the wrong discussion, let me know. My OE is not responding,
can't
get to my emails.
