Dan, I wouldn't think that one e-mail would be the cause of all your
problems. If you remove dbx files, you will lose all of the messages in the
folder associated with that dbx file. If you delete inbox.dbx, you'll lose
all those message. So if you have important ones, move them to another
folder.

Thanks for the help; will I loose all the messages in the outbox, sent
items folder and the deleted items folder if I do what you suggested? One
other note; I have an email in my inbox. which won't open; I can open and
read all the other ones except that one. Could this be my problem in that
maybe something is wrong with that one?

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!

Something bad has happened to my outlook express program; I cannot
delete any messages and many of my memo options are suddenly not
available. We had a thunderstorm yesterday and my computer was shut
down, I mean the electricity was knocked off; Anyone with any ideas?
