I haven't figured it out. On occasion, when I originate and send an e-mail from Outlook Express, I can't find it. Copies of my e-mail normally are sent to me. I just sent an important one to a church to research something for me last week. It is not in my sent, delete, nor inbox. I did a search for it on Outlook Express, but can't find it. I don't know what I am doing but it is gone. I know that I didn't delete it and I know that I sent it because the e-mail address shows up when I click on "TO" as having sent mail two that address. Can anyone offer any clues, suggestions. Thank you. Rose
