I have the same situation - shutting off preview pane doesn't help. I am
using build 5728. The only thing I can do without getting: "An unknown error has occurred" is to Mark Read/Unread The message is not previewed in the preview pane: "Message could not be displayed Windows Mail encountered an unexpected problem while displaying this message. Check your computer for low memory or low disk space and try again." The message is from a reliable source - Perfect Disk, Raxco Software - and was OK for awhile and then became corrupt.

We're on new territory here.
Try going to Tools | Options | Advanced | Maintenance and where it says to compact after 100 closings, set that to 1. Then close WinMail and it should prompt to compact and when it does say yes and let it do its thing. Then reopen WinMail and change that value back to 100 and see then if the message is still there and can be deleted. I haven't tried this yet, so I guess I will in a moment. steve "BChat" wrote in message ... I have the same situation - shutting off preview pane doesn't help. I am using build 5728.

I tried it Steve, thanks for the idea, no good. I tried it twice - no good x
2 :-) I show 1 message in the Inbox - a very stubborn message. Is there a way to delete the Inbox, then create a new one? Bill "Steve Cochran" wrote in message ... We're on new territory here.

I went into the Maintenance section and removed/deleted anything and
everything I could..... .......no good. I got me one stubborn message. ;-) I d/l the software - installed it - then uninstalled it. At some point the message went "dead" As well as I can remember, it was after I uninstalled the software - I have NO clue how that could relate to the message.
