Can you be clearer on what I should do because I can't understand your
suggestion!
tnx
Hank

Open OE. Click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder tree on the
left. File/Work Offline. File/Folder/Compact all folders. Wait until
it's done.

While in OE I clicked on File Folder Compact
Instead of doing that, click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder
tree and then click on File/Folder/Compact all folders. Do this with OE
off line, of course.

I can't compact OE files. I get a message; folder in use by Outlook

Did you click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder tree before
compacting?
