When I view the .dbx files in the Store folder there are some that have been
previously deleted, but still showing. More improtantly, there are some that
are current that have no .dbx file showing. I have my system set to view
hidden files. Why would some be hidden?

For example I was trying to reduce the size of the Sent Itms folder. It
origianlly showed at 53MB for only 543 files (mostly very small). Following
some instructions fro here I moved all to a Temp file, deleted the Sent
Items.dbx file and then moved all back from Temp to Sent Items. Now there is
no Sent Items.dbx showing in Windows Explorer. If I search for the file it
shows as in the Store folder with a size of 31MB (still way too large) but I
cannot view it in Windoes Explorer.

I also have a size problem with Inbox.dbx. There are only 42 messages
showing yet the size is 62MB.

How to get this all straightened out. What shows in OE is what I want to
see, but the .dbx files really are a mismatch making it impossible to backup.

Thanks in advance for your help.
