Two problems which may be related. These started recently; the program ran
fine for a long time prior:

1. Messages which are in the inbox view, once selected, fail to disappear
when deleted. Can't delete them or drag them to the recycle bin.

2. When sending messages, I sometimes get the following message:

An unknown error has occurred. Protocol: SMTP, Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No,
Error Number: 0x800C0131

The message then does not leave the outbox. Usually, if I go to tools - send
and receive - send and receive all, it is sent OK. This was also an
occasional problem which has gotten worse recently.

Rebooting the system corrects this for a little while, then things act up
again. Stopping and restarting Outlook Express does not improve the
situation.

Thanks in advance,

Ken
