Hammer the suggestion about changing to doing the compacting yourself wasn't meant to be the cure, more like a safety measure which might help...
Hammer, I think this points to corrupt DBX files - which happens more easily the larger the mailboxes get. I'd be tempted to "archive off"...
no way am I suggesting you should run W98 - I was trying to make the point that if I can run EZ antivirus on a pathetically inadequate bashed...
