I am running Outlook 2000 with Exchange 5.5 Whenever an e-mail appears in my inbox it disappears after a minute or two. I found that the Inbox items were getting put into the Sent Items folder. I cleared all of the filters, but that seemed to do nothing. How do I stop this?

Do you have a rule set up to forward the mail? Such as an Out of Office Assistant?
What are the settings on the Inbox view?

I just noticed that they are not ALWAYS going to the sent items folder. It seems as though they just disappear.

I tried that prior to posting my question and the results were negative, but thank you.

There are no rules or out of office assistants running. Further, when the user logs in on another machine, mail goes where it is supposed to. Our users can see all of their e-mail from any station, except in the case of this user on the problem station. She does not have access to any of the e-mails she has received on the same PC her e-mails are "disappearing" from.

Are you running a POP3 or an IMAP for the incoming mail server? If POP3, follow the instructions below:
Go to http://www.microsoft.com/technet/
Type Q273835 in the Search Box.

I hope this provides some help in the right direction.
