Can anyone tell me why (Outlook Express) continually displays the incorrect number of deleted items in it’s email (deleted) folder. This has been a problem since the first version and as I’ve just updated to XP service pack one it’s not been addressed!!!

If they can’t get this right what’s going to happen with the serious issues?
 
I don't have that problem. I just deleted my email (all one of them) & it came back saying zero.
 
But it is displaying what is in the folder. Delete the contents & you get zero.
 
Dave -the only time my deleted folder has a number behind it is when there is an unread message in the folder that I deleted without opening it.

If you have read all the messages in the deleted folder, there will not be a number behind the folder.

Likewise when you delete all messages from the deleted folder, including that one "unread message" then there is no longer a number behind the deleted folder.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
