If so, click on it and it should/might take you to various topics on the subject. Try some of the suggestions. I did, none worked, your results may vary. You are not alone with this problem ;-) |

You can try compacting the database. Go to Tools | Options | Advanced |
Maintenance and change the value for compact number from 100 to 1. Then close WinMail and it will prompt to compact the database. Let it do that and then reopen WinMail and change that value back to 100. See if that fixes it. Otherwise, its probably a big that will be fixed (hopefully) in later versions. steve "Microbear" wrote in message ...

See if you can find the message under the Inbox directory in the message
store and if so, then delete it there. steve "BChat" wrote in message ... Just upgraded to 5744 - still got the message - some days things don't go well at all............................

My Vista RC1 is working fine; all except my SBCGlobal Email account. I used
exactly the same setup on the account, which works fine on XP, but not Widows Mail in Vista. ATT tells me they "don't support Vista!" What can that mean? Or will a later Vista fix it?
