Try File | Folder | Compact while in the inbox. If that doesn't fix it then
move every message out of the inbox to another folder and then close OE and
delete the inbox.dbx file (hidden). OE will then create a new empty one.

Hi Jim Pickering
Thanks for your advice. Settings under Current View had been set to"Show
all messages ", so apparently this was not the problem. Any further
suggestions please ?

Check your settings under View/Current View - Should be set to Show all
Messages. If not, it's the most probable cause of the problem.
