Hello Jason,
Historians believe that Tuesday, September 4, 2001 at 17:14 GMT -0400
was when, Jason Ellis [JE] typed the following:

JE> Anyone have this problem who could provide some guidance?
It sounds like you need to compress the folders.
(Folders -> Compress all folders).
When you delete a message, it is not removed from disk, it is only
marked as deleted. A compress operation physically removes these
messages. To see if you do have these deleted messages on disk, use
the Folder->Browse Deleted feature.
You can automate the compression so that it occurs every time you
close down TB. This option is set folder-by-folder in the folder
properties.
One other thing you can check out is the Purge option. Purge will
delete messages based on your folder settings. It then runs a
compress operation automatically.
