Hi, Does anyone have any bright ideas why, when I try and open my outgong  
mailbox, everything appears normal but the window does not appear? I have  
about 50 mailboxes and all the rest are fine. the outgoing mailbox file is  
there and can be read with edit. If I open it from a shell window all is  
well. Bob

I sometime find that mailboxes behave unusually when the tableofcontents  
file is munged.  Try deleting that, as seeing if the problem goes away.
