hi caitriona, here is another way to make a folder in outlook express.
1 fro your inbox tab once,
2arrow down to where you want your folder to come in such as: under
draughts,
3press your application key 3rd key on the right from your spacebar,
4 arrow down to new folder and enter,
5give the folder a name and press enter.
I find this works better than noreens way.
