Corrupt inbox in Outlook 2007?

M

markjrubin

Very frequently, I'm in my Inbox and I see new mail has come in. On
the mail folders to the left, I see the unread emails number continue
to count but the messages don't show up. The only way to get them to
show up is by clicking out of the Inbox to another folder and then
clicking back on the Inbox. Whenever this happens, I also get error
messages on startup telling me that outlook didn't close successfully
last time. Any thoughts on either?

Regards,
Mark

What OS are you using? This was a common problem using the Windows Firewall in Windows XP SP-2.
