"to free up disk space outlook express can compact messages this may take up to a few

I keep getting this message today when I try to start up my Outlook Express. If I click on compact, Outlook crashes before opening. I can't find a way to open Outlook at all, it is my normal email program along with googlemail. My broadband connection is fine and I use Windows XP.


Have done a full virus check and hard rebooted etc.


Any ideas to solve ?

Thanks

Follow the instructions HERE, starting at the section "If Outlook Express will not start".
Be sure to move ALL the DBX files into a new folder so you can Import your mail back.
Let me know if you have any problems or the Import fails.
