You just won 5000 virtual beers.* Your reply reminded me that ZoneAlarm Pro
has an option which cleans various caches. "Clean Recycle Bin" was an
option, and has been shut off. Thanks!

F12-Spacebar-Delete-F, all at once, to dispense virtual beer.

You're not confusing the Recycle Bin with Deleted Items by any chance? I
can see from your message headers that you are fully patched, so you
should see bak files in the RB after you compact.

When you compact, do you see the normal compacting dialog box, and then
another above and to the left that says copying? You should be.

Do you have a third party program like Crap Cleaner that is set to empty
the RB at a certain time?

This is due to a recent OE update, (KB923694). Now when you compact, a
copy of your dbx files are sent to the Recycle Bin in the event that
something should go wrong and messages, or entire folders, are lost when
you are compacting.


I've read this a couple of times, but there are no dbx files in my
recycle bin, and I've *manually* used the Compact feature twice in the
past month. I wonder if the files are automatically deleted from the
recycle bin after compacting is done.

You're welcome. Got any *virtual* Scotch?
