Default Why doesn't my email content show up?

Hi Yes, I did

I came up with a solution not sure if it is the right one, but it worked.
(I suspected it to be something to do with Service Pack as People here have
hinted, I have had these accounts set up through various upgrades of office &
Wiondows)

1. I created new New PST Files for each of my personal folders.

2 .I then copied the mail from the ones giving me problems into the new
area. This needs to be done for In and Sent mail. You could also just rename
your old PST file and keep it as personel folder and have the new PST clean
for all of your new in & out mail.

2. Then Deleted the old PST files. (probbly best just to rename them and
leave them in a folder somewhere just in case)

3. Need to make sure your accounts are pointing to the correct PST file too

4. Seems to be working perfectly now for all of my incoming mail. As I say
it was either a problem from SP2 (my old PST files were in the outlook97
format) or the files had become corrupt.

5. oh yes you may need to do a bit of work on your contacts as they appear
to be linked to the original inbox - pst file.

Hope this helps

Hi there,

My Outlook has started doing the same thing, I have 3 x ISP adresses & 1 x
Hotmail Address, that Outlook downloads, and all of them are aeffected by the
random Blanking of e-mails, So I can confrim that it is def outllok.

I have tried the forwarding on the message idea, but that does not work, I
think once it has been downloaded as a blank that is it.

The random nature of the problem also males it impossible to test out any
different scenarios.

I have also tried the restore office defaults thing and that did not work.

Any help would be apprecited.
