My old machine recently went to the micro-chip pile in the sky. Cause was
essentially user stupidity. I ignored a fan fault warning for a little too
long, and the motherboard shorted out in a few places. PEBKAC and all, I
s'pose..

Is there some interference by Adobe Reader to OE? I was getting really strange behavior in
several newsgroups (on different servers), with messages disappearing suddenly, until I

Owing to past experience I am always concerned about the fate of my emails
in the eventuality of a crash.
Is there any way to store Sent Items and Drafts - not Inbox, though - on a
drive that is nothing more than a data store, i.e. is not in Local Settings?

Once this happens, OE becomes unresponsive for several minutes, and when it
does start working again it moves very slowly.  ...

Running OE 6, when I receive mail from Lotus Notes 6.5, all I see is an
empty window. BOMK, all HTML- and virus scan-related options are set to
allow viewing.
The email is simple text, and is easily readable in the message's source.

Can I save space on disc by deleting messages containing large attachments?
In other words, do attachments really take up much space on disc as listed
there? or, are they compressed? Where are they saved?   Thanks

I have W2000 and am using Outlook Express. I have set up a new User and want
to transfer the messages and address book from an existing user to the new
user. I seem to remember that all the messages are stored in a file, could
someone remind me of the name of the file and its ...

Do the dates and times in the Outlook Express newsreader reflect only my
time zone of my computer,  do they reflect the time zones of each post
relative to each senders computer or do they represent only one time zone

Is it true that OE is adding ads at the bottom of every email I send? That
is the claim from a Thunderbird lover. He says I can't see the ads but the
recipients do. I would dismiss this as a nonsensical junk comment except
this particular person is highly knowledgeable about Firefox ...
