TSGL: 2nd request -Outlook Express experienced DON SEARLES

[EDLYNN]

Thanks Don -

Yup. that's been correctly marked since the beginning.

I think that there must be a hidden option somewhere.

What about reading the ".dbx" files so that I can find out what has been 
happening? Any ideas on that? Craig had suggested DBXTRACT.com, which I 
downloaded and tried but couldn't locate the extraction, even though the 
program sounded perfect for my needs.
Any help there?

Thanks again.

ED
