Either you let your Inbox got too bloated, or you disrupted compacting while
in progress. If you at sometime checked Do not show me this again when you saw the compacting prompt, OE will compact without you knowing, and again, if the compacting process was disrupted, mail will be lost. If you disabled the prompt, post back and I will tell you how to replace it. When you see the compact option, and select OK, and never touch anything until it has completed. Why Mail Disappears: http://www.insideoe.com/problems/bugs.htm#mailgone About File Corruption: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/IE/...orruption.mspx Recovery tools: DBXtract: http://www.oehelp.com/DBXtract/Default.aspx DBXpress is the best chance of recovery when run in disk mode if the loss happened during compacting. Also faster for large folders: http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/Default.aspx And this is a very good option for the futu Steve Cochran has added a button in his new version of OE Tool that will not only Compact All Folders, but at the same time, resets the "Compact Check Count" to zero whenever you compact manually. You will see the prompt again if you do not compact before 100 closings. http://www.oehelp.com/OETool/ It is still advised to check Work Offline before you compact. A general warning if you don't want to lose your messages in the futu Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They will eventually become corrupted. Create your own user defined folders for storing mail and move your mail to them. Empty Deleted Items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 100MB, and Default folders as empty as is feasible. -- Bruce Hagen MS MVP - Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "Patricia Coyne" wrote in message ...
