Re: Compacting folders

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry


Bruce, thanks for all your information. "Define..." One of the problems
appeared to be nested folders where I'd have folders under the Inbox which
had folders of their own. I don't think the compacting program handled them
well.

OK. It sounds like I need to do some more work. I'm going to start a new
thread on folders which seems to be giving me the majority of my problems.
Thank you to all who wrote to help!

Mike
