Jackie, I have the same problem exactly. I sort of get round it by moving my
messages to my bin folder which is the one that I use when on the phone, but it
doesn't work well and I hate Outlook with a positive hate athe moment! Mo, or
anyone else, if you find a fix for this, I'm interested too, so please keep at
least the results on lists! Thanks! Carol P
