News at CWNet

I have two mail accounts. I download headers and bodies from one, but
headers only from the other. One header from the latter account seems stuck
in my inbox. I try to mark all and delete, and everything is deleted except
that one post.

I tried to figure out how to get rid of it, but no luck. The header had a
line drawn through the middle of it. It wouldn't delete. I "unmarked" it,
the line through the middle disappeared, but it still won't delete.

Any ideas? Thanks again.

Sounds like an IMAP account to me.
There's always the "nuclear" option: delete the IMAP account, stop and
restart Outlook, then add it back in again. You'll get a brand-new PST and
the account will requery the IMAP server to determine which messages it
contains.

Thanks. As mentioned in another post, the item just disappeared the other
day. It hasn't recurred since. Very odd.

I appreciate the idea.
