Question : Outlook express new email disappear then reappear

Greetings,

I have a strange issue with my outlook express email.

I know that I have received a bunch of email but I can't see them. Sometime, when I close and re-open outlook express they will suddenly appear and they may disappear a few second after.

If I click on send receive, some email may get received, if I re-click on send-receive I may lose them... it's very strange.

After few hours, I receive some "new" email (not all email... only a few of them) that were send 1-2 hours before.

I don't have new email rules since this issue appear. All the mail that rules apply on it are successfully received. But the one that doesn't match my rules have some trouble to stay in my inbox folder.

Answer : Outlook express new email disappear then reappear

How much email do  you have?

If you go to :

C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{GUID}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

How large are you dbx files? At some point it gets corrupt and can display this issue.

You can also try to compact your outlook express:

Select File | Folder | Compact All Folders from the menu.
