Default Problem with a folder

I cannot access my sent folder. I am using OE 6 and Win98 SE. When I
click on the folder it just hangs and does not show the messages. I have
to abort things using ctl-alt-del.

Any suggestions?

Default Problem with a folder

Are there any messages in Sent Items that you want or need? If not, post
back. If you need messages in Sent Items, backup your messages first and
then compact all folders and see if it opens then.

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.

Compact Your OE Folders:
