Dan, had this problem this week myself. You may very well have a corrupt
dbx file, or several. You may want to delete the outbox.dbx, sent items dot
dbx. and deleted.dbx files. To do this, go to start, and then search for
files and folders. Type in, dot dbx. Then, tab to more advanced options,
and make sure you check the boxes for hidden files, and system folders.
This way you should find the files you're looking for. If you have any
messages, you need to hold onto in the deleted folder, move them to another
folder before you do this. Basically what will happen is when you start OE
again, it will create new DBX files for the ones you deleted. In so doing,
all of your messages will be lost in the respective folders. Good luck!
