This is the second time this has happened in a month. I am downloading email and the rig freezes. I have to do a hardware reset. OE repeats the freeze up. I moved all messages from the INbox to a newly created folder, went into Windows Explorer and renamed Inbox.dbx. Opened up OE which recreated Inbox.dbx. Tried to check email, freeze, hard reset.

The last time it happened the techguy at the ISP said it was a corrupted Inbox.dbx and had me set up a new identity and then it worked okay on the NEW identity. But all my messages are in a now corrupt file that I can't access because it's in a different identity. Any ideas? Thanks!
