I moved some folders and now some of them appear italicised and empty.

However when I search for the messages, they appear, but I cannot open them. If I click to view in folder, it comes back blank.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I tried to post a screen print, but that didn't work either. Happy New Year.

re: I moved some folders Moved what folders from where to where?

For example were they originally a top level folder and now you have moved them as a sub folder. Or were they a sub folder to a top level folder and now they are a sub folder to another sub folder?

re :I tried to post a screen print, but that didn't work either. I'm presuming you took a screen dump and then used a program like 'Paint' to turn it into a saved name.jpg file. Then attempted to upload in this forum question using the 'Add images 'Browse' button. Sometimes this can fail, so delete the image you are trying to add and repeat the action to upload. I get this error on occassion, but it does upload in the end.
