Collapsed Inbox.
|
Carolyn Arnold <4carolyna@...>
Does anyone know what to do to control the Inbox and just maintain it?
My Inbox, sometimes, says it is collapsed. It has said it was collapsed three weeks ago, now says it was collapsed today. Usually I can exit Outlook and come back in. What in the world is that, why, and what can I do to stop it or fix it, please?
Best from,
Carolyn

The right arrow key should open it for you.

I don't think I thought of just pressing Enter.

Caroline:
Usually, to "expand" the inbox so that it doesn't read COLLAPSED, you only have to press the right arrow. Then you arrow down and you'll find that those suddenly missing emails have returned. I hope I've addressed the proper problem.

It sounds like you have addressed it. What causes the thing to collapse

in the first place? What advantage would there be to a collapsed inbox? Bye for now, Carolyn

Depending on how you have your messages sorted, you can collapse all message

on a particular date, from a given sender, about a subject including reply messages. It's a quick way to reduce the clutter on your message list without having to move or delete messages. You might ignore some messages for now and bring them back later. Outlook 2003 had a habit of sometimes deleting two messages at once. When I was ready to empty deleted messages I would collapse the most recent couple of months and delete the older ones. This saved me the time of skipping back several hundred or thousands of messages to the ones I was ready to delete and I was able to find a recent message if it was referenced in a later message.

delete. Usually at the end of the day, when I have around 300 in there, I hit Yes. I hadn't checked sent message for a while, checked, and heavens, I had 800, so I highlighted and hit Shift Delete. My husband says I'll delete something I don't want to, but I save messages from the lists that are helpful and that I know I'll look to for future references. Bye for now, Carolyn
