Newest version already. For no apparent reason, all emails in Trash duplicated and some of those emails became "bolded". My unopened emails lose their "bold" when deleted. I ran Repair on both folders. Now the issues have stopped but I have thousands of duplicate emails and deleting any email in Inbox takes about 20 seconds each.

Can I fix this without having to manually delete the dupes, or by deleting them all???

Thanks, Larry

I should mention that this is the home program for this POP3 account. Also, for a long time I have had two popstate folders. Popstate.1dat and 2dat. Probably irrelevant.

I would just right click and empty the trash. Trash is no meant for long term archival storage.

Matt, I know. I would still like to avoid doing that if possible.

I would also still like to know what happened in case is was somehow "preventable".
