Yes, I've found this happens when OE compresses files. Must have come in with a Windows update at one time.
I just empty them out eventually. Best wishes, Joan.----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy Collins" <andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi all -I have several .dak files/folders in my recycle bin, and they seem to havebeen created after allowing OE to do it's compressing of messages to save space, thing! There is an out box.dak, a sent items.dak, a drafts.dak, and a deleted items.dak that according to it's property sheet, is 320mb in size! Oh yes, and there is also an off line.dak. Can anybody shed light on this? I haven't personally put these folders in the recycle bin, and the size of that 'deleted items.dak' folder seems far too large for anything to do with OE! - Andy ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq __________ NOD32 2524 (20070912) Information __________ This message was checked by NOD32 antivirus system. http://www.eset.com
