Could be a corruption issue
Try
Rename the Folders.dbx file:
1. Click Start, point to Find, and then click Files or Folders.
2. In the Named box, type folders.dbx.
3. In the Look In box, click your primary hard disk (usually drive C), and then click
Find Now.
4. Right-click the Folders.dbx file, and then click Rename.
5. Type folders.old, and then click OK.
Start Outlook Express. This creates a new Folders.dbx file automatically.
NB You may have to reorganise your Inbox folders by moving them to where they should
be and your message rules etc)
If you're not happy, reverse it
or try the OE NG
