But, it is still happening. Any help on this issue??

Check Preferences/Mail&Newsgroups/Network&Storage and look at
your
settings for Disk Space. Either uncheck the option, or set it to
something "reasonable".
I have my setting at 20 MB (which seems a bit low, now that I think
about it) and I hardly ever see a prompt to Compact; same setup as you -
iMac running 10.6.8.

Rufus,
Thanks for the email. I just de-selected the option and that may have
done the trick. The setting was already at 20MB and that wasn't
resolving it.
Hope that will work out for you.
I don't know why I've left mine at the seeming default - something like
500-750 MB seems a better choice. Maybe I don't see requests because I
always mark my headers "read" at the end of each session?
20 Mb, golly gosh!!
I'm on Linux, so that might account for the difference, but in
Edit->Preferences->Mail & Newsgroups->Network & Storage, I've got Disk
Space, Compact folders when it will save over 1 MB!!
Don't know how big a mail folder has to be in order to possibly save 1
MB, but a 20 MB mail file looks a bit large, IMHO!!
