Ron, Thank you very much for your reply. Your questions led me to the solution for the problem. Please also read my reply to Bruce Hagen. When I checked the message rules I saw that there were 2 message rules entered. The 1st was called the MFN rule and the 2nd is called the New Message Rule. I remembered that my ISP provided instructions to enter the New Message Rule but I didn't recall the MFN rule. I found the instruction sheet the ISP gave me when I first set up my email and it stated the MFN rule should not be entered with OE so I deleted it and then went back into OE. OE then downloaded my new messages to the inbox like it is supposed to do so I think the problem is solved. I don't know how the MFN rule got entered there. I don't recall doing it myself and OE used to work ok but it stopped showing my emails in the inbox some time ago and I just decided to try to get the problem corrected. Thanks again for your help. hi |

![]() تم كتابة "dennis" في أخبار ... Bruce, Thankyou for responding to my request. I think I finally have solved the problem. To answer your question; show all messages was checked and nothing else was checked and OE was closed when I deleted inbox.dbx. Ron Summer asked in his reply if I have any message rules. I rechecked that and saw that I had 2 message rules. One called the New Message rule was set per intructions from my ISP the other one is called the MFN rule. I reread the instructions from my ISP and it said that the MFN rule should not be set for OE so I deleted that. I don't know how the MFN rule got set. OE was working ok for sometime but then it started deleting my emails from my ISP and showing there were no new messages to display in OE. I don't recall entering the MFN rule myself. Since I deleted the MFN rule tonight OE seems to be working ok again and I'm very happy about that. Thank you. -- dennis "Bruce Hagen" wrote: View | Current View. Is Show All Messages checked and nothing else? Was OE closed when you deleted the Inbox? It must be. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP [Mail] Imperial Beach, CA "dennis" wrote in message ... I have windows xp with service pack 2. I hope someone can help fix my problem. When I check for email at my ISP and see there is mail to download to my computer and then go to Outlook Express, Outlook Express shows it is checking for new messages but then says there are no new messages. If I then go back to my ISP mail it shows the messages that were there have been deleted. Outlook Express is deleting my mail off my service provider but showing I have no new messages in my inbox. I tried deleting "Inbox.dbx" and restarting Outlook Express but that did not solve the problem. I will really appreciate any suggestions you can give. Thanks, -- dennis |
