Outlook express new email disappear then reappear
Greetings,
I have a strange issue with my outlook express email.
I know that I have received a bunch of email but I can't see them. Sometime, when I close and re-open outlook express they will suddenly appear and they may disappear a few second after.
If I click on send receive, some email may get received, if I re-click on send-receive I may lose them... it's very strange.
After few hours, I receive some "new" email (not all email... only a few of them) that were send 1-2 hours before.
I don't have new email rules since this issue appear. All the mail that rules apply on it are successfully received. But the one that doesn't match my rules have some trouble to stay in my inbox folder.

When my dbx files got to 1Gb I started seeing this.
In the end I was forced to drop Outlook Express through a move to Windows 7. I am now running Thunderbird for my mail, though the new Windows Live is looking quite promising again...

barrulus,
I don't want to move to windows 7 nor thunderbird.
I must fix this issue and keep OE.
I'll try to compact my DB. But I think that my user already did this.
Also, if it's a corrupted dbx file, how can I repair it ?
Thank you
