Hi Arianna, There may be a way to hide that dialogue, but I won't know until it pops up again. Having messages compacted automatically, is a good idea. I leave mine set this way, so I don't have to figure it into my routine maintenance. This is a good option for those who store large amounts of messages in Outlook Express. The program actually has a size limit, and when messages are not compacted it becomes bloated and unstable much the same as a hard drive which is close to capacity.

I don't have my messages sorted by conversation, so that doesn't come into play here. i guess I'll just have to go along with the maintenance then since I don't have a choice. I kind of figured that was the case. Thanks for the help.

This only occurs every 100 times you leave the program. It is a maintanence operation that is normal for the program. As far as collapsed messages, this is an option which keeps all of the messages grouped by conversation. The idea behind it, is to keep messages sorted so they can be acted upon as a group, instead of individually. Whether messages are sorted this way, is entirely up to the user. No, you do not have to have messages collapsed, Outside of those 2 items, if you are getting a specific message, pass it along, and I can tell you more about it.

Can I get rid of this message altogether? Do messages have to be collapsed?

Okay your way out of the dialogue, and you are done. The next time you delete a group of collapsed messages, you will not be prompted.
