Are you speaking of "Compacting"? OE recovers used space when it compacts, but there is no recovery process for messages.Bruce Hagen ~ MS-MVP [Mail]

Are you using Outlook Express in XP or Windows Mail in Vista? If its the latter, then run my Windows Mail Utility to repair the database (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/). OE does NOT have any sort of recovery function, so no one understands what you mean by that. steve <DASTAR> wrote in message news:Email removed for privacy...Under the heading "recovering messages" I get messages all day long that shows the system(outlook express) keeps recovering data and I am not doing any recovering.
