Thank you Jose, and good luck.
There is one important thing that I should have stressed when I was talking about deleting the file "Folders.dbx" to solve some issues.
I should have explained that this file not only contains the settings that maintain the nested folder structure as seen inside Outlook Express, but it also stores the lists of newsgroups on each news account, and the synchronization options for all subscribed newsgroups and IMAP accounts.
When Folders.dbx is deleted and automatically recreated, the nested folder structure (folders and sub-folders) will be flattened to separate folders. Because of this some of the mail rules may need to be edited because the "paths" to the folders may have changed. You would also lose all lists of newsgroups and all synchronization options.
