go to windows live but continue to receive error in outlook express messages

Outlook express 6 does not work anymore so I went to windows live mail, but I keep getting error messages re; Outlook express, even if I do not use it. How can I get rid of error messages?

You are welcome. If you ever want difficulty OE, you need not to be able to access first.

In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (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.

The path to the message will be very similar to this:

C:\Documents and Settings\Your User of utilisateur\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\ {long string of letters & numbers} \Microsoft\Outlook Express

Simply deleting Folders.dbx and OE should open after that.

  • Windows Live Mail, send and receive error message: error in Live Mail ID 0x8DE00001

    original title: sending and receiving erratic

    Today I created 2 new email my Live Mail account addresses.  Sometimes, I am allowed to send and receive, and at other times, I get an error (Server error 4102) with Live Mail error ID 0x8DE00001.  After the repeated efforts to send/receive, a box appears for me to decipher the CAPTCHA letters.  Yet once, it takes repeated efforts to have accepted answer.  By the same box, told me that I could make verification easier by my cell phone available that I might have a check of the text sent to me.  Don't you know, my Cricket phone is not accepted.  I had a few problems with Windows Live since put so that it uses a couple of years.  Why this problem all of a sudden?  I want to prove once and for all I'm not a crook or a spammer.  What can I do?  It's so frustrating.

  • How do you define separate in Windows Live Mail accounts as you would in Outlook Express?

    I used Outlook Express for years.  Now that I have Windows 7, Outlook Express is not an option.  That's ok.  However, I have problems of establishing separate accounts in Windows Live Mail as I did in Outlook Express.

    I created three accounts in Outlook Express.  When you open Outlook Express, we saw all three names in the window.  Would you click on a name, a password, and then you connect.

    I want to do the same thing in Windows Live Mail.  I tried everything I know.  Someone suggested to go to the accounts and make new ones.  I did, but who made new account to go on Windows 7.  I don't want to do that.

    If anyone knows how to help, please contact me with directions.

    Thank you.

    See if that helps,

  • Is there a way to convert Windows Live e-mail and files folders in Outlook Express format?

    I made the mistake (severe) a few years previously to install Windows Live Mail and Outlook Express abandonment on my Windows XP computer.  Now, I would run parallel iMAC and Windows messaging systems and e-mail iMAC tool does not recognize Windows Live Mail as mbox files. Therefore, I can't import Windows Live Mail in the iMAC email tool.  To add insult to injury, Microsoft Outlook email tool on the iMAC is import the Windows Live mail.  (No use asking, I guess, why Microsoft would enact incompatible messaging formats without integrating converters through the indexing schemes).  In short, is it possible to return to Outlook Express?

  • Windows live ID:0x800CCC0E, 10060 socket error - impossible to send/receive email using Windows Live Mail

    could not send email, now I can't send or receive email.  I contacted my IP to see if it was a problem on their end, and it wasn't. Help, please!

    Looks like you are running in a block of 25 port.
    As a general rule, the owner of port 25 SMTP server you use must be the same as the entity that provides your Internet connection at the moment. To learn more about this issue, see anti-spam
     
    The workarounds available when sending abroad are the following:
     
    1. use webmail to send (via your browser).
    2. ask your ISP if they have one port other than '25' for SMTP.
    3. If you use the same connection away from home frequently,
    Replace with the SMTP belonging in this regard. It's a bit
    difficult, but if you want to go this route, I can provide more details.
    4. If you frequently send to multiple locations, get a free Gmail account,
    Configure it to POP access, set up in Windows Mail and use it to
    your shipment of household chores. Gmail uses port 465 for SMTP, which is not blocked
    as port 25 is.

    In Outlook Express, compact you files first.
     

    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.
