outlook 2003 emails are disappearing!!!

[ccie2b2004]

I have Outlook 2003 on a Windows XP home edition. I have a very weird problem. My emails go first to my domain e-mail server, waits until outlook downloads them and then I read them. I have done it like this for years, simple setup, not a brainier. For the last 20 days, outlook downloads the e-mails (the show bar showing the process tells me how many e-mails are downloading) but then... nothing, they disappear!!!! I decided to click on living the e-mails on the server to check them since they seem to be disappearing about a week ago and since then; I can check them since they stay there. I tested the e-mail settings and an outlook tells me that it works. Outlook does send e-mails ok, and they get storage in the SENT folder. I just tried uninstalling outlook and reinstall it again... same thing! I run Symantec antivirus with a fresh definition file: Clean. I run Webroot Spy Sweeper with a fresh definition: Clean.

What I am missing here???? I am pulling my hair out by now

While in your inbox, make sure that View, Current View is set to 'show all messages'.

And no filters are on.

The view is set up for "messages" and my filter setting was in low. I changed it to:
"No protection: Although this turns off the automatic Junk E-mail Filter, Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 will continue to evaluate"
Tried and e-mails downloads but disappears!!! I should also mention that the "junk e-mail" folder is also empty...

Thanks for the feedback...I am loosing my mind on this one

You could try starting outlook with the 'CleanViews', 'ResetFolders', or 'Safe' switches:
