This just started. OE says that I currently have 12 messages in my Inbox and 1 message is unread. I beg to differ. I count 10 messages and all are read. View is set to show ALL messages. I set the view to hide read messages and that hid the 10 messages that I have in the Inbox and left nothing showing. I don't have any other unread messages in any other folder. Inside the Inbox folder I created a folder for this list and all messages from the list go to that folder. Currently that folder is empty. I have a couple other folders that I use for storing messages temporarily and there are no unread messages there. I'm currently working on 3 different emails and have them saved in the Drafts folder, marked as read. I tried selecting all messages in the Inbox and marking them as read, OE froze up. OE is version 6, OS is XP Pro. I just deleted everything in the Inbox, OE says there are 2 messages and 1 is unread, this is just totally weird. tia, zat To unsub or change your email settings: //www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ //www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/ For more info: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=pctechtalk
