sounds like the email files are corrupt - maybe your had drive is on the way out.

If you have any important files, now would be a good time to back them up onto an external hard drive or onto dropbox

need more info.
what's your email client? Outlook, outlook express, something else?
Give us the exact error message
can you open you email program at all?
if so, can you see the emails in there?
If so, do you get the error when you try to open one?

Have you noticed anything else different on your PC? any other programs not working?

Are you with Talk Talk? I had this problem last night, fault at their end I think. All OK now.
