    WLM "An unknown error has occurred"


    I'm not able to delete or move an inbox message, receiving the subject error message instead. I've encountered this error on my previous Win7 computer, and as I recall the problem stayed forever. I have now executed the Repair function accessible from the Control Panel, which tells me that the program has been repaired successfully--but I guess MS has a view of success that's different from mine. Will it help to uninstall/reinstall WLM? Or can anything else be done?

    Boris, your link is perfect for my issue. I hadn't tried to drag the message to the Deleted folder, and to my delight it worked beautifully. I haven't had more than a few such problem messages at a time, so handling each individually is just fine. Thanks!
