Hi
I had this same problem a month ago. Windows Mail would only open once. the
only way I could use it more than once was to log off and on again. At the
same time whenever I tried to delet a file or rename it, the dialog box with
the progress bar would not close down.
Eventually I wiped the hard disk and started again as nobody had an answer.
All was well for a month but now it has started again exactly the same. I'd
switched to Windows Live Mail in the meantime but now that won't open at all.
Windows Mail will only open once and the progress bar box won't shut down if
I delete or rename a file. Does anyone know what's going on?
