| | "Message cannot be moved or deleted" Last week I found instructions via the "Help from Communities" feature on how to fix this problem. They described how to delete the 2 instances of WindowsMail.MSMessageStore which were running and let mail rebuild the message store. Since doing that, every time I start Windows Mail, it wants to recover messages all over again, and I cannot find my saved messages. How do I fix Windows Mail to start working correctly again, and where can I find my saved messages. Thanks up front for any help. -- Brian R. Fast |

Just move the messages into your main folders by "drag and drop", and delete the Imported folders when done. Shawn |
