THIS sounds eerily familiar; it has that deja vu feeling to me. But I can't swear to it. My first suspicion would be database corruption; try a rebuild. See if you can resurrect Tim Eyman. When you did the search, are you sure it included Deleted Items? -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
