I opened windows mail in vista this morning and all of my messages are
missing. It indicates I have 16 messages not opened, but I can't see any of
them. I have messages in other boxes. The current view is show all messages.

Can anyone tell me how to find the missing messages?

You may have some database corruption. You can try repairing it (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/). Also, you can examine the message store to see if the eml files are actually under the inbox directory (see www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm and the section on WinMail).

Problems such as this are often caused by antivirus software incompatible with WinMail. See point 3 here: www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
