Why is it that when I "goto" a newsgroup and decide to not subscribe... the

I guess it's just in case you decide to go back later.

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. -- Bruce Hagen MS MVP - Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "DanR" wrote in message . com...
