You might have a corrupt Deleted Items folder.  Close Outlook Express, do a
search for "Deleted Items.dbx", and delete or rename the file when found.
If you're using either Windows 2000 or Windows XP, this file will be hidden
and you'll need to adjust the view settings to show hidden/system files for
the search tool to find it.  A new, empty Deleted Items folder will be
created the next time Outlook Express starts.
