In Win98 I was able to save an e-mail to the desktop, open it & send it
out many different times. Kind of like using it as a form letter. I would
just enter the address & send. I can't do this with XP. I can save it to
the desktop but when I open it to enter the address or edit it I can only
read it not edit it in any way. Any ideas why???
Thanks!

Since you have WinXP SP2 you want this update:
There are two articles, KB918766 and KB918651, but the latter is not
currently available. The download link is
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

It places the backup in Recycled, overwriting any earlier backup of the
sane folder(s). To use it, copy it to the store folder, delete the one you
want to replace and then rename the BAK file to DBX. (It's a bit more
complicated if the messed up DBX file isn't there or contains messages that
are hew that you want to keep.
