How do I stop windows from asking....

[kleuch48]

How do I get my computer to stop asking me if I want Windows to compact my
messages in mail? I do not use windows mail and do not have enough mail to
constitute compression.
Thanks,

Mail files

Tip: NEVER post or use your real email address in a public newsgroup or
forum!

It only asks when you close Windows Mail, so you must be using it.
Let it do the compaction. It only does it every 100 (default) shutdowns.

? Windows Mail won't run if you're not using it.

Thanks for your responses. I let it do the campaction and it has stopped for
now. I must be using the service albeit not as my primary email.
