  OE uses IE settings.  Then configure things in IE (margins and others) and it should then apply to the when you print from OE.

• 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.

  As you can imagine, it's a very embarrassing problem.  All suggestions are welcome, but please keep the instructions clear and simple.

  Hello

  Windows XP Service Pack 2 is installed on your computer? To work on this question, see these steps.

  It seems that there is a corruption of dbx file.

  I suggest you go over your messages out of the Inbox, and then create new folders Outbox and sent items after you move the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.

  Reference:

  (a) click onTools

  (b) thenOptions

  (c) selectMaintenance

  (d) Record Store will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files.

  (e) Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste to start and select run.

  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

  Reference:

  (a) clickStart

  (b) Control Panel

  (c) Folder Options icon

  (d) notice, or in Windows Explorer

  (e) Tools

  (f) the Folder Options

  ( viewof g).

  With Outlook Express closed, find the DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them. New ones will be created automatically when you open Outlook Express.

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

  Reference:

  (a) clickOutlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open.

  (b) click onthe file

  (c) work offline (or double click working online in the status bar).

  (d) file

  (e) file

  (f) compact all folders. Wait for the compaction to complete.

  General precautions for Outlook Express:

  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 about a300 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

  Compact often as specified above.

  Reference:

  (a) in the Tools

  (b) selectOptions

  (c) maintenance:

  (d) uncheck Compact messages in the background and leave it unchecked. (N/a if running XP/SP2).

  And backup often.

You will see your list of contacts and the choice to put them in the To, CC, or BCC field. Click on an address, and then click BCC to add it. Repeat for all of the contacts you want. (Note: most of the providers have limits as to how many messages you can send both a. 25 is common, but it varies).
   
  Put your own address in the box to. That's the only name/address that any recipient will see. If you leave the field empty, some people may not receive e-mail because of message rules they put in place, or restrictions imposed by their ISP.
   
  You can also make an entry in the address book using your e-mail address, but put something like the mailing list in the area of the display.
   
  *********************
   
  You can also create groups if you send e-mail to the same people often.
   
  To create a group of contacts:
   
  You can create a single group name (or alias) to use when sending a message to several contacts at the same time. Just create a group name and add individual contacts to the group. Then just type the name of the group in the box for when you send mail.

  to add a person to both the Group and your address book, click New Contact and enter the appropriate information.
  (d) to use a directory service, click Select members, and then click search. Select a directory service in the drop-down list at the end of the text box. After finding and selecting an address, it is automatically added to your address book.

  b. you can create multiple groups, and contacts can belong to several groups.
   
  If you want to send to a group without addresses are displayed for each recipient, open the address book and make a new entry. Enter the name of the group in the area of the display, but use your address. (Some Internet service providers require a legitimate address in the line to and recipients will know it's from the Group).

• Windows 8 - since previous import of old emails from Outlook Express

  My old computer with XP died and my other uses Windows 8, and I am on a steep learning curve.  I had saved my email on a portable hard drive, and it is stored as .dbx files.   Y at - it an equivalent of Outlook Express in Windows 8, and/or sort I can download these files in order to access all my old messages (in and out) and email addresses.  Help!

  As you know by now, my colleague has given you a bit of a "bum steer", Hazel.

  While you can not import Outlook Express (OE) in the Mail of Win8 application data, you may be able to import the data to backup OE (DBX files) in Windows Live Mail (2011 or 2012) as long as the backup contains a file named RECORDS. DBX. Assuming that to do this, follow these steps:

  1 download/install Windows [Live] Essentials 2012 via this page-online http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-live/essentials-home

  NOTE: When you install either version, there is an option to install only the applications that you want (for example, Windows Live Mail;) Windows/Movie Maker photo gallery) or the entire suite (includes also Windows Writer, SkyOneDrive, etc..).

  2. Once you've got Windows Live Mail installed, create a new folder on the desktop (call, for example, the DBX FILES for convenience) & place a copy of your DBX backup set (i.e., all your files DBX including RECORDS.) DBX !!) in this folder.

  3 VERY IMPORTANT! => open the folder that you created in step 2 above. Select all the [CTRL + A] as all the DBX files are highlighted. Right click on the folder group. Select PROPERTIES and uncheck the READ ONLY box (assuming that this is already done).

  4. open Windows Live Mail & run the hotkey ALT + F | Select import messages. Microsoft Outlook Express 6 and point the Import Wizard to the folder created in step 2 above & click OK

  The imported data (files) will be located as subfolders in Windows Live Mail imported files as shown in the figure below:

  

  Once your OE messages were imported, they can (a) stay at this place, (b) be moved folder to created by the user in the storage of files (by the above illustration) or (c) be moved to a folder created by the user in an e-mail account (other than a Hotmail account) you set up in Windows Live Mail (i.e., to access your new messages).

  [By designed, Windows Live Mail creates a folder structure for each email account unique. or moved to the folder created by the user in the storage files.]

  To get instructions on the practice (b) or (c) above, see the bottom half of the blog post from my colleague of Windows Live Mail MVP most of what precedes is based (if not shamelessly copy/paste)-online http://liveunplugged.wordpress.com/2008/05/24/migrating-messages-in-accounts-from-outlook-express-to-windows-live-mail/

  [Actually, I'm going to ask him to review/critique my answer in case I may have made a blunder!]

• When you print emails from Outlook Express, the HTML code is printed as well. How can I disable this?

  My father-in-law is using an old computer with XP. He has recently developed a printing problem emails via Outlook Express. Printing of HTML emails included.

• How to move emails from Outlook Express 6 to a CD for access later?

  Want to move the emails within a particular folder on a CD and be able to access it when necessary.  If I want to copy the whole .dbx file to the CD can remove the file from Outlook Express/computer?  Thank you in advance.

  If you copy the dbx file, you will need to put in the OE message store to read the messages. Copy the messages themselves.

  Create a folder on your desktop or elsewhere, then in Outlook Express open the folder with the messages you want to save. Highlight a message, and then Ctrl + A will highlight all (or Ctrl-button down while you select only messages you want), now, drag and drop them into the folder on your desktop.

  Now you can copy this folder to a CD and you'll be able to read the messages on the CD by double-clicking them.

  You can see the messages with the same subject get attached, probably with (1), (2), etc. One of these programs may be useful for you. Take a look and decide.

  You can still drag the messages in a folder in OE, if necessary.

• 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?

• Can't type normally to send emails from Outlook Express. Help! Emergency situation

  How can I disable the dvorak keyboard, which is only to perform Outlook Express email - I can't answer emails due to the alteration of the keyboard (unless I learn Dvorak in 10 minutes. Don't know how this replacement keyboard has got, "lit. Type the Word documents works very well. I have been studying Dvorak but do not use it. It is a problem of poltergist? kidding... Please please help

  I made the switch to Dvorak and love it... but I guess I'd also put off like you if I use QWERTY to my email...

  There are a few things you can try.  First, turn on the language bar.   Right-click on an empty space in the tray (usually at the bottom) and select:
  Toolbars-> language bar.
  This should put a checkmark in front of "Language bar" and a keyboard icon should appear on your screen.  Then, while you are in an Outlook Express window with the [UM] "undesirable" available, click the icon in the keyboard language bar and try to change the 'United States Dvorak' to 'English United States' (or any English you use).

  You can also go to the Control Panel then:
  Regional and language-> languages (tab) settings-> details (button)
  You will then see the installed keyboards.  The default value will be in bold.  Then click on:
  The key parameters-> click on "Switch between input languages"-> change Key Sequence
  You can see one of the boxes is checked it will allow you to switch between installed keyboard layouts.  On my settings, I checked the "switch Keyboard layout" and checked the 'CTRL' key  On my keyboard, whenever I hit the shift and CTRL keys at the same time, it passes between the languages of two keyboard... but this come into force in the currently active program.

  Hope this helps,
