Don, Unfortunately, suggestions to use other programs don't help you with CIM. Since you've already invested the money, let's try and make what you have work. I have no problem deleting mail from my Filing Cabinet while off-line, so a global condemnation of CIM is way off base. First, what version of CIM are you using? Some of the older versions did have some problems. Also, what PC are you using? Or is it Mac? If DOS, what version? How much hard disk space do you have on your disk? Messages stored in your filing cabinet are simply files; the folder name is the name of a sub-directory off of the CIM directory. Perhaps you have some bad sectors on your disk – have you done any surface scans (like with Spinrite, Norton, or PC Tools)? Do you have this problem with mail messages in every folder, or only certain ones? Lemme know. You might also post the same message in the CIM Support forum and see what they say. Steve
