• Display the emails in Outlook Express

  Hello

  I recently installed a Microsoft WebCam with Windows Live Essentials.

  I continue to use Outlook Express to compose, send and receive emails, but record everything I need to keep somewhere else on my PC.

  When I open these saved emails they now open in Windows Live Mail instead of Outlook Express.

  How can I make these emails open in OE as before? Eric

  Right-click on one of them and open with | Choose the program. Select Outlook Express and then check the box: always use this program to open this type of file.

  If still no joy, OE is not defined as your default e-mail client.

  Control Panel | Add/Remove programs. Set Program Access and Defaults. Custom + down arrow | Select the option for Outlook Express.

• Cannot send the PDF with Outlook Express.

  PROBLEM SENDING FILE PDF WITH OUTLOOK EXPRESS.

  Here's what's happening.  I created a PDF file in adobe 4 pages, I can reach the PDF file to a mail sent in Outlook Express, but I see where he treats of it says part 1, part 2, part 3, all the way to part 7, when there are only four pages.  The recipient gets 7 different emails and cannot open an any of them.    I have a yahoo email and I can send the PDF file there.   Just frustrating.  I use Windows XP.  Not familiar with computers but I would like someone to tell me the problem.  It has worked before and I don't know what happened to create the question.  Thank you.

• Compaction of the emails in Outlook Express - problems

  My computer prompted me to compact emails from my Outlook Express (OE) to free up space, so I did.  Now, I don't have any emails when I open Outlook Express.  How to reverse what I did.  I have important emails I need.  I went to tools, Options, then on maintenance and found the folder where the messages are stored, but cannot bring them back into OE.  Help, please!

  Two reasons the most common for what you describe is disruption of the compacting process, (never touch anything until it's finished), or bloated folders. More about that below.

  Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :

  Recovery methods:

  If you use XP/SP2 or SP3, and are fully patched, then you should have a backup of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin (or possibly the message store), copied as bak files.

  To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first find the location of the message store.

  Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

  In Windows XP, the .dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in the Solution Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.

  Close OE and in Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file, then drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.

  Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.

  First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.

  If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.

  If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
   
  If you have not then bak copies of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin:

  DBXpress run in extract disc Mode is the best chance to recover messages:
  http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx

  And see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4

  A general warning to help avoid this in the future:

  Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They finally are damaged. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  And backup often.

• How I try to change the size of the scroll bar in the emails to Outlook Express 6.0?

  When I open an e-mail in Outlook Express, the scroll bar on the left side is so thin and small, that I can't use the scroll bar.  The up and down arrows are so small, I can't get the arrow in the box.

  The scroll bar should be on the right, not the left. Are you sure you are using the correct screen resolution?
   
  You can try a new identity and see if that makes a difference.
   
  You may have a damaged identity especially if it's the default main identity. File | Identities | Add the new identity. Create a new one and try it. If all goes well, you can import your messages and address book from the old identity and delete it.
   
  Note: Do not use the main word in the name of the new identity.

• Not able to receive, delete or move the emails in Outlook Express

  Cannot move emails to another folder.  Cannot delete emails.  Cannot receive emails.  If I try to open e-mail messages that are already in the Inbox, I get a message that it could not send a notice of receipt of the message, which I'm sure that spammers never asked.  I can send emails, but that's all.

  Sync replaces send/receive. You will find WLMail help here.

• Try to restore the emails (in Outlook Express 6.0) that have been deleted after compaction.

  After compacting was done several of my recent emails have been deleted.  This never happened before.  I went to the trash and click on restore for each of them, but none are returned in the received or sent items box.  I know they are there somewhere but don't know how to find them.  Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get back them?

• I can't delete emails from outlook express, pop box says up point cannot be deleted

  I have a lot of emails and Outlook express will not let me delete one of them. A box appears and tells the message cannot be deleted?

  Deleted items is probably damaged. On the off chance that you want messages to be saved in deleted items, (a garbage can), move them to a local folder, you create and then follow these steps.

  Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.

  In Windows XP, the files of user OE (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.

  With OE closed, find the DBX file for deleted items and delete it.  Another will be created automatically when you open OE.

  To avoid this in the future:

  Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

  Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

  After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

  Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

  Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  In tools | Options | Maintenance: Uncheck Compact messages in the background box and let it unchecked. {N/a if running XP/SP2}.

  And backup often.
