I think you are right Eduardo--this is most probably what it is: a folder with bad data. Because every time it tries to close, it delays as I explained, and then at the last moment before it actually closes, I notice now that it actually briefly gives an error message about a particular folder. But it flashes so briefly just before closing, that I haven't been able to see which folder it is. If I do it a few times, I may be able to read it. Assuming that this you are correct that one folder has bad data, then I guess I don't need to remove and reinstall Evo, right? Just identify the bad folder and remove it. If I can read the folder name in the error message, then that should do it. Otherwise, doing it the way you said and re-import the folders one at a time, how will that help me to identify the bad folder? And once the bad folder is identified, will the whole folder have to be thrown out? Or may I find a bad single e-mail in the folder and just remove that?
