• 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.

• Error: "some errors have occurred during the processing of requested tasks". Sending emails from Outlook Express

  Original title: Repetitivet sending emails from Outlook Express

  When sending emails from my Outlook Express , the following occurs:

  (1) as usual, send the message falls into my Outbox and begins to be sent.

  (2) when the message was sent, I get a message that "some errors occurred while processing requested tasks" but no actual errors are displayed.

  (3) the sent items folder does not show that a message has been sent... but a message has been sent.

  (4) the original message remains in my Outbox and will be sent over and over again.

• I can receive and answer emails on outlook express but I am unable to store a contact or add sender to address book.

  original title: outlook express

  I can receive and answer emails on outlook express but I am unable to store a contact or add sender to address book. I get the error message "an error has occurred. Outlook Express could not add the sender to the address book"

  Office has not OE and Outlook.  Are you sure you are using OE and not Outlook?

  The default location of the address book (wab file) is C:\Documents and Settings\ [username] \Application Data\Microsoft\Address Book\username.wab

  The location is hidden, so you must go to control panel | Folder options | Discovers and check the box to include the display of the hidden files and folders and uncheck the option to hide the extensions of the file types that you want to know.  Then see if you can browse to the location of the wab file and find him then.
