OUTLOOK EXPRESS 6.0

I am haveing an issue regarding deleting my email msgs. . . . I can occasionally delete one message and once it is in the deleted folder I can completely trash it.

The problem is deleteing from the inbox. I performed the compress files function more than once and still no luck!

The problem seems to only be on this computer as I can delte from other computers. I leave my mesages on the email server so I can look from more than one location. This is my main computer though and it is terribly annoying to have thousands of messages accumulate.

I have run antiviral & spyware programs and the computer on the whole is running pretty well.

I run Windows XP pro. Please help(:
