Hello, In Windows XP Pro and Outlook Express 6.0. The Inbox is empty but down in the status bar it shows 1 unread. When I have several in the inbox and 1 is unread the status bar shows 2 unread. Is there such a thing as an invisable e-mail that you can't open or delete if you can't see it ? Spooky ghost inside my PC, any ghostbuster help would be grateful...Kenny

Do you have any rules set up to delete certain emails? I have a rule set up that says "If I get email from myself, delete it". So when I'm at work and have to send an email to "all users", the copy I get is deleted, but it says I have email. You might have something simular set up in your out OE6 rules.

No, I don't have any rules set in message rules yet. This is a new PC. I did delete an e-mail without opening it that had a little box with a +/- in it right next to the FROM name. I also deleted it from the deleted folder. This is when this problem started. I did run the virus scan and spyware scan, nothing showed up there. I'm still ghostly puzzled.Thanks anyway.

Problem solved; It was in the View/Current View button where "Group Messages by Conversation" was checked.(don't know how it got checked) But it seems to be working good. I wouldn't have found it if you didn't point me to those buttons in the first place...Thanks; Kenny
