Fact of life. Delete the .dbx file and compact.

Click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder tree so no folders are
open. Then: File | Work Offline (or double click Working Online in the
Status Bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until
the compacting is completed.

Why? No idea.

Why is it that when I "goto" a newsgroup and decide to not subscribe...
the dbx file remains on my computer?
