Does all of this behavior persist in a new identity?
Your current Identity may be damaged, especially if its the default Main Identity. Try one or more of your accounts in a new Named Identity (File > Identities > Add new identity). Assuming all is well, (1) compact all folders in the old identity, (2) import messages from the old identity into the new one, and then (3) delete the old one (File > Identities > Manage Identities).
To avoid such corruption in future:
- Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose.
- Empty Deleted Items folder daily.
- Disable Background Compacting [not available in SP2] and frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm
- WinXP SP2 only: Do not shut down your machine while Windows is automatically compacting your message store.
- Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.

IE 7.05730.11. Bummer. The strange thing is that I AM able to save some of

is no rhyme or reason to it. It seems to depend on who sends them as much
as anything.
There are also some emails that I cannot reply to. My typing does not show
up on the email when I type. Strange. I have to copy and paste his message
into a new email and then put my reply at the top. That also happened with
IE 6. It only happens with one or two people who must use a particular
email program or stationery.
What IE version are you running?
The behavior is due to how the graphic is embedded in the email message
from these lists and has nothing to do with your OS or OE. AFAIK, there's
no workaround other than what you're doing.

other than taking this extra step? I took my computer back to the retail
chain that installed the OS and they couldn't fix it. They claimed it is
a
yahoogroups problem and not an OE problem, but none of my other list
friends
have this problem using the same OS.
