Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] - 17 Jul 2007 21:31 GMT Sounds like you should examine the View settings you applied to your Inbox.

The only thing that I have found so far (by accident) is:
When you click away from the Inbox to another folder and then back to the Inbox the messages will show up in the Inbox.
Any help would be appreciated in getting this problem resolved.

It only seems to happen on certain accounts, but I haven't narrowed that done yet.
I've also checked VIEW as suggested, but there's nothing there that would cause this.
I can drag emails from Unread into other folders, but not the InBox, where they vanish.
I'm wondering if it has anything to do with Kaspersky Anti-Virus, which I installed about a month ago -- though the problem is much more recent.
Any help, thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

What is happening here? Thx

I have Outlook 2007, and messages will arrive to the inbox, but not show. I have to change the focus to another folder and then back to the inbox. At that point, it will show. I have checked all the settings and even went back to the defautl. The problem continues.

The issue is not that the mail did not arrive, the issue is that it is not showing in the "Inbox," just like mentioned in the beginning of this thread. My Inbox will be empty, but next to the "Unread Mail" folder it will show (3). In order to get the mail to show, I have to click any subfolder and then click on Inbox. At that point, I will be able to see the three new messages in the Inbox.
This was not an issue until we upgraded to 2007, and I think it started right away. It just took a while to figure out what was going on.
Thanks.

I have been having the same problem for the last week with Outlook 2003. Some of my incoming messages go to "Unread Mail" but don't show in the inbox. Worse, if I open them in "Unread Mail" and then close them again they disappear completely (they don't go either to Inbox or to Deleted Items).
Help!

> Worse, if I open them in "Unread Mail" and then close > them again they disappear completely (they don't go either to Inbox > or to Deleted Items). The won't "go" anywhere. The Unread Mail folder in not a real folder. It is a search context that shows you messages marked as unread, no matter what folder reall holds them. As soon and you read them, they're read, so they won't appear in that folder. But they'll still be in the folder where they were originally. They haven't moved.

Jon Cameron - 03 Dec 2007 16:52 GMT Brian:
It shows they are in the Inbox, and the new messages are in the Inbox. However, they are not initially listed in the Inbox. We just have to remember to change the focus to any other folder and then back to the Inbox. After the refocus, they will show both in the Inbox and Unread Email.

Jon Cameron - 04 Dec 2007 14:03 GMT POP/SMTP, as we always have. This is a issue we noticed after upgrading to Outlook 2007 on some of our PCs. We have not seen it on the Outlook 2003 PCs. However, I have noticed other posts are claiming the same problem in Outlook 2003 - and it seems to have appeared around the same time.
Thanks, Jon

While I've seen mention of this problem in Outlook 2007 POP accounts, I don't recall any posts about it with OL 2003 and in the vast majority of the cases, it's for Exchange accounts. I think I'd start with a new mail profile.

aloysius - 20 Dec 2007 02:36 GMT I read somewhere else that the "Google Toolbar" add in may be the problem...I deselected and now it works. I don't get it...maybe it is catching it and slowing it down?

Gary Rogers - 23 Nov 2008 21:02 GMT I would like an update, as well. It is apparent from Googling this issue that several end-users and tech support people have experienced this problem, tried all kinds of suggested "solutions" and come up short. I am one of them.
This is very frustrating -- even more so that Microsoft hasn't given it the attention it deserves!

(if you have access to an Exchange server)
I am also connected to an Exchange server but prefer to “work off line” instead of connecting but the POP account actually works when you are in connected mode towards the Exchange account.
Also, messages you previously downloaded (that did not show up) show up after restarting outlook in connected mode.
I am pretty sure messages would also show up if you open the file with outlook 2003
I would like the bug fix ASAP or if somebody have another workaround....

What happens if you uninstall it? Nadine - 04 Mar 2008 20:55 GMT Has anyone received a solution to this. I have many Outlook 2003 Windows XP users (Exchange Email). With this same problem. No Google tool bar, no Google add-in at all.
New mail comes in but doesn't show in the inbox, yet unread mail folder count has increased. Has to click out of the inbox onto another mail folder before the message shows up in the inbox. Very annoying. And causes work issues as staff are expecting messages and not seing them to action. Until they do the above.

Decided to try upgrading to Outlook 2007 to fix problem but same issue. What is real interesting for me is that I do get a couple of messages every now and then. I see lots of incoming mail being received but I do not see where it goes. I have refreshed all views. Looked in all folders and still nothing. Good news is that I do not even see any junk mail, imagine that!

The first one we tried was removing all extra add-ins in the Trust Center. That worked temporarily, and then we found out if you right click on the Inbox folder, and then uncheck "Show Microsoft Exchange views" that everything showed up in the Inbox. I hope this helps.
