Thanks Barry for having a go, no Guru has stepped in so far, and the problem is 
persisting! -

  Hi Andy, I looked around my settings for any clues but afraid I haven't the 
faintest why this is happening, perhaps one of our guru's will chip in!

  All the best,
  Barry

    Hi Barry -

    While we're talking about Email reading issues, do you know what I need to 
do to stop Windows mail[probably the same in OE] from telling me all messages 
are "unread" when I've actually read them? Something to do with how they are 
marked, but I can't seem to fix it! -

      Hi Balal, 

      Try going into View on the menu bar, arrow down to Current View, then 
uncheck Group messages by Conversation.  That will stop OE grouping the 
messages in the thread together and your screenreader telling you that it has 
done so.

      Personally, I keep this turned on all the time as I get around 600 
messages per day and, as you have found, you can delete an entire thread in one 
hit, which is one advantage of the group messages by conversation  setting.  
Beware though, people will often start a new topic by replying to a message on 
a different topic and, although they will sometimes do the courtesy of changing 
the message subject line, OE looks at the buried information about the message 
that has been replied to and assumes that the new message is part of that 
thread, so unless you expand the collapsed messages and scan through them, you 
can miss something of interest.

      HTH & all the best,
      Barry G

        Hello.
        when I go thru my outlook express mail, next to some messages, jaws 
keeps on saying collapsed and expanded.
        I don't know how to get rid of this, so much so, that when I pressed 
the delete key, it deleted all my emails.
        Thanks
        Balal Hussain
        Kind regards Balal Hussain
