Default Fax Console - Missing sent items

Please do. This is the closest we've come to nailing this down. And thanks
for the good troubleshooting.

As far as I can see the file looks entirely normal.

It previews in the 'windows picture and fax viewer' in exactly the same

way
as the other files.

However, I'm totally certain this file is the cause as the symptoms

reappear
ever time it's added back to the folder and disappear as soon as it's
removed.

If it would help I can send you the file and a few of the others as they
don't contain anything confidential.

So there was nothing that indicated the file as corrupt, like an invalid
extension? Could you open this corrupt file from the SentItems folder?
This will be a rather laborious solution, but it's nice to know what

caused
it.

By changing the file before sending the new fax I ended up with just

one
file in the sent folder which appeared perfectly.

As soon as I copied over the other saved files from the other folder

the
problem re-appeared. So I then tried them one at a time, starting with

the
newest thinking it was a particular date point causing the problem.

When
the
problem re-occurred I removed the file and the problem corrected

itself
after I'd closed and re-started fax console. Adding files after the

'corrupt
one' worked ok to. Hence isolating it down to just one file.

Closing and re-starting Fax Console after each change is necessary to.
Presumably that list is built at start up, so no changes are visible

until
after you close and re-open it.
