deleting messages
where is the "message store folder"?
"Jim Pickering" wrote: Then the problem is most likely with a corrupted deleted items folder. Close OE, go to the message store folder, find and delete "Deleted Items.dbx" and then restart Outlook Express. Also make sure you compact your message store folder often while working offline. -- Jim Pickering, MVP, Outlook Express Please reply to newsgroup only. "mike" wrote in message ... It is not with certain folders. I restart, open OE, read some email,and delete or move it to a folder. At some point, I am unable to delete any from any folder. The deleted folder does empty upon exit. "Jim Pickering" wrote: If it's only with certain folders, the folders may be corrupted. Try creating new folders, and move the messages into those new folders, then close Outlook Express, and use Windows Explorer (WinKey+E) to navigate to the message store folder and find and delete the DBX files with the names of the problem folders. You can also try a compact of your message store while working offline since that can often repair "minor" corruption in the DBX files in the store. -- Jim Pickering, MVP, Outlook Express Please reply to newsgroup only. "mike" wrote in message ... I use WINME,MSExp6,Firefox,EZArmor Security. I did have NAV and had this same problem. I am ususally unable to delete email messages from various folders. Set to empty deleted folder upon exit and this works. I have used repair tool in add/remove programs, but problem persists.Any suggestions?
