Hi. If I have understood various discussions on this group, deleting the
WindowsMail.MSMessageStore file will simply scrap the index, leaving the
messages intact. Is that right?

My WindowsMail.MSMessageStore file is almost 40Mb and is clogged up with
references to ancient Usenet messages - including messages on newsgroups I
don't even visit any more.

So, if I delete WindowsMail.MSMessageStore will Windows Mail work OK, but
without the bloat?

Thanks in advance,

toc
