Windows Mail is deleting all messages from my Inbox
Earlier today, my Windows Mail used to have over 1000 emails in my Inbox. Tonight, I noticed that almost all of the emails in my Inbox were deleted. If I navigate to another e-mail folder and return to the Inbox of messages more get erased. The missing e-mails are not appearing in the file delete either.
What caused my e-mails from 1000 to clear all of a sudden? How can I recover my 1000 mails and how this fixed a bug?
Thank you.
Try this:
Go to your Inbox > view > current view > check show all Messages.
See if it works.
See you soon. Mick Murphy - Microsoft partner

I read the post on the copy the messages from the Inbox to another folder. I tried, but get an error message. I decided that I would just delete all but the messages will not delete. I used the search function of windows to search for inbox.dbx, but he could not find the file. I have a large number of messages in my Inbox and its ok if I lose all. I get the error message when I start outlook express and download messages from my pop3 e-mail. It still downloads messages from one of my other emails which is also a pop3 server. I have windows xp pro and it is completely up to date. Thank you...
Hello craigalene,
This issue may occur because of corrupted inbox in Outlook express.
Perform the following troubleshooting steps and check if this solves the problem.
Step 1:
Create a new folder and move all mail from your Inbox to the new folder in Outlook Express.
Follow these steps:
a. click on the file menu.
b. Select the folder and select new.
c. give an appropriate name for the folder.
d. Select all mails in the inbox and move to a different folder.
e. move mail to the new folder.
Step 2:
I suggest to delete the Inbox.dbx file in your computer.
In Windows XP Outlook Express files user (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under Start, Control Panel, Folder Options and view.
Follow the steps to delete the Inbox.dbx file.
a. close Outlook Express.
b. use the search option to find the box of Inbox.dbx.
c. delete the Inbox.dbx file.
Note: Another will be created automatically when you open Outlook Express.

Have windows live mail 2012.
Impossible to delete some messages. Some are in the same domain. Should be spam. The settings have not been changed.
To solve the problem, I signed in Microsoft Outlook.com and managed to delete messages as well as notify Microsoft about junk e-mail. So far, when you use Windows live mail, I received an email from the same source as before and was able to remove it.

Why, all of a sudden, can't delete some messages in the Inbox of outlook express
in the last week, I can't delete some messages from my outlook inboxof express. There is no constant to reason
Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox (if you can), and move the messages you want to record off deleted items and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.
Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.
Compact all folders as described below.
To avoid this in the future:
Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

I'm an old Geezer Mac, but a Newbie iCloud. I just put on my two Macbook Pro iCloud email addresses and access e-mail through Apple Mail on both computers. Here are my two questions:
(1) iCloud emails disappear at the time of my Macbook Pro when I delete a message from iCloud of one of them?
(2) if I move an e-mail message to iCloud Inbox Mail at Mail Archive on a Macbook, can I delete the message from the second Macbook without losing the archived message?
Yes, that is what is supposed to happen with an IMAP e-mail account.
If you move it to a folder on the Mac, not in the iCloud account, you can remove safely icloud.

Why the sent folder contains 2 copies of all messages from MacBookPro?
Why the sent folder contains 2 copies of all messages from MacBookPro?
Whenever I have send a message to my Mac Book Pro there is a duplicate in the sent folder. This does not happen with messages sent from the iPhone 6s or Outlook Web site. This happens only when I send a Hotmail.ca and not Gmail.com
signed,
Irritating confusedHey TaylorP56659,
I understand how to duplicate emails sent may irritate you, no worries however! I can help you to see if we can get this sorted out. So if it happens with your Hotmail account, try to check in Mail preferences, behaviors of the Hotmail account mailbox. It is possible that you have sent items save on the server that will allow the Mail application to have twice. This is because a local copy and the copy on the server downloaded is in the follow-up of the app the steps below to disable the registration of sent items on the server and will not happen. You can also check the Hotmail settings via webmail.
1. launch the Mail application
2 select email preferences from the Mail menu bar
3. click on the tab accounts
4. highlight your Hotmail account
5. click on behaviors of the ball
6. click on "store sent the Server Messages.
7 close the preferences of Mail and send a test message
You can see the other Preferences in the mailbox behaviors
The steps above should stop these form of duplicates to appear in your sent folder in app Mail thank you for using communities of Apple Support
Have a great day.
