Email incoming problems

[Nathan]

When I start up my outlook Express 6, I click on send and
receive all. It will bring in the messages, but when I
try and open it the screen will say...

Message could not be displayed
Outlook Express encountered an unexpected problem while
displaying this message. Check your computer for low
memory or low disk space and try again.

What could be happening?? I checked my disk space, surely
25+ gigs is enough space. Does it have to do with Ram??
I am clueless, help me!

See http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/problems/errors.htm#foldersdbx.

Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local
folders created for this purpose.

Disable Background Compacting and frequently perform a manual compact of all
OE folders while "working offline". More at
http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/files/maintain.htm.

Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such
corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.
