I'd say OE in WinXP SP2 is protecting you from yourself (i.e.,
unintentional deletion of messages).  With that option enabled, always
close OE before shutting down.

Undoubtedly, I can use all the protection from myself that I can find. Thank
you.

Not a problem, more a curiosity. I just got my second computer a few days
ago. My first dates back almost six years and ran 98SE.

I have enabled the option to empty messages from the deleted items folder
upon exit. With XP, the folder empties upon closing the program, but not
upon a restart or shutdown. With 98SE it always emptied with a program
close
or a restart/shutdown.

Perhaps I'm missing something--a high likelihood--but why wouldn't a
restart
or shutdown constitute an "exit" from OE?
