right click the folder, select properties and then the repair button. That rebuilds the index for the mail folder and may fix the issue, or it may remove some mail from the list. But remember we are only building an index, not changing the message store.

Matt, many thanks for your reply that removed all the affected emails from my inbox to ??? so where would they now be located and am i able to get access to them

I also noted prior to doing the repair that emails got jumbled up so to speak some affected emails had the content of other emails ie text and photos included in the body of the email

cheers Trevor
