Do you know how to store your OE folders?  If not, here is how you can find 
all of the .dbx files.  These are the files that make up your outlook 
express folders.

1. When in outlook express, hit alt T for tools.
2. Up arrow to options and hit enter.
3. Hit control tab until you hear, maintenance tab.
4. tab until you hear store folder... Button. And hit enter on that.
5. Tab until you hear, your personal message store is located in the 
following folder.
    It will give you a long number.  select and copy this number.
7. Now hit escape twice and clear out of that.  You should be back in your 
list of E-mail messages.
8. Now hit left windows and R for Run...  Paste that long number you copied 
into the run dialogue box and hit enter.
9. Now it should show you the list of all the .dbx files you have in outlook 
express.  From here, you can delete the ones you no longer want.  But be 
sure not to delete any of the ones you didn't creat.  These are necessary 
for OE to work correctly.
Once you're done, just hit alt F4 and get out of there.  You're done.   Jack
I hope tha
