Have Wdws XP using Outlook Express. Recently had work on computer. All of a sudden all the old emails deleted coming on Inbox. (Over 2500) Back in early 2010. Electronic mail stops. What is the problem?

I have Wdws XP and using outlook Express.

Work done recently on my computer, and now all the old emails that I had deleted in early 2010 are coming into my Inbox, (over 2500). I guess it is the overload that stops at the email, so I can't receive new messages.

Thases e-mails had been permanently deleted, supposedly. From which they come, and how can I fix it?

You had a frame that says "leave a copy of messages on the server. There is another setting that says "remove when deleting server ', but it was not selected.

Outlook Express knows the messages that he has already recovered, but this information is a lost if you, for example, recreate your e-mail account. Then all messages go down again if they were left on the server.

If the extraction has ceased, it might be because...

one) you forced by cancellation or may be disconnected from the internet (in which case there are more to come), or

(b) he finished, in which case old emails cannot be retrieved again (unless you are replicating what just happened), all mail must be picked up

To avoid what is happening in the future...

(a) according to the State of the parameters mentioned above, you may need to delete messages via webmail, and/or

(b) to change the settings

To change the settings...

  • Click on tools
  • Click on accounts...
  • Click on the Mail tab
  • Highlight (click) your e-mail account and then click on the properties button
  • Click the Advanced tab

3 background settings are what control the things...

"Leave a copy of messages on the server.

"Remove from server after x days.

"Remove the server after deleting in" deleted items "

Adjust them as see fit you.

    Complicated. The Inbox is damaged due to becoming too large.

    With OE closed, rename the Inbox.dbx in Inboxold.dbx. When you open OE, a new Inbox will automatically be created and new mail will happen as planned. Now you will need a tool to retrieve messages from the old Inbox.

  • I recently bought a vista computer to an office auction. The problem is that this computer is password protect, I do not know the password. Is there a way I can fix this?

    I'm not computer. Is there a simple way, I can solve this problem?

    Hello

    Microsoft prohibits any help given in these forums to bypass or 'crack' the lost or forgotten passwords.

    Tips from Microsoft is to reinstall the operating system.

    If no disk not supplied with the computer, contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of Vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Normally, they do this for a small fee.

    Also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive that you can use to reinstall Vista.

    With many brands of computer, you have to press F10, F11, etc at startup to start this process.

    Ask them the exact key sequence.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key determines which Edition is installed.

    Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    See you soon.

    Your Inbox may be damaged.  Try to move all messages from the Inbox to another folder or just move the (hidden) inbox.dbx file to another directory with OE closed, and then when you open OE will create a new.  See if that fixes things.  If this isn't the case, please cite the complete error message.

  • I use OUtlook Express for e-mail. Night that suddenly disappeared from the value of a full year of emails - for example from October 2011 to the today October 2012. How can I get back them?

    I have been using Outlook Express 6 for more than 20 years without a single problem so far. Value of a full year of emails has disappeared all of a sudden my box but all e-mail messages seem to be always in place of my sent folder.

    How can I recover these e-mails Inbox?

    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? :
    http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact
     
    Why mail disappears:
    http://www.insideoe.com/problems/bugs.htm#mailgone
     
    Recovery methods:
     
    If you are running XP/SP3, 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:
