I don't get some of my emails on my screen of outlook express mail and also an error box pops up sometimes and tells me to contact Microsoft

Outlook Express emails (computer bought in 1996)

Bought in 1996 threw me a bit because XP wasn't even a dream at the time.

In addition to great advice from Steve, join this Council, in particular analysis of electronic mail.

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:

And backup often.

  • I use outlook express 6 and I can receive an email of great but when I try to send it after making the necessary changes, i.e. the signature I get the message 'too big for the server.

    I use outlook express 6 and I can receive an email of great but when I try to send it after making the necessary changes, i.e. the signature I get the message "too big for the server" responses I've seen so far tell me absolutely nothing

    Well, the error message says it all.  "" too big for server".

    There is a limit imposed by your ISP/mail server, which you don't mention.

    Not only the servers have limits on the size, this is not necessarily the same for incoming and outgoing messages.

    If you say you use the e-mail program and the name of your e-mail server, maybe we can shed light on the more specific issue, but the problem is definitely with them and not Outlook Express.

    P.S. I'm not sure what you mean by 'signature'

  • I can't delete the emails of one of my Outlook Express email accounts.

    Outlook Express for email
     
    Hi all. I am running Microsoft Windows XP on my computer. I use Outlook Express for e-mail. Currently, I'm unable to delete the emails of one of my Outlook Express email accounts. Everyone knows about this problem? All proposed solutions?

    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and move the messages you want to record off deleted items, and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

    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, 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.

    With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.

    Compact all folders as described below.

    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.

  • Emails from Facebook cause my Outlook Express to freeze

    I use Outlook Express v6.  When I received a notification e-mail from Facebook, Outlook Express hangs and I have to close the program.  Sometimes I have to close it in the Task Manager, because the output will not work.

    Facebook emails are a bit out of what they are supposed to be internet standards, so it is not that you can do about it at this end, unless you receive Facebook messages in plain text, if they have this option, which I doubt.  On your side, if you get this message, you can turn off playback in the preview pane, but rather go to tools | Options | Read and check the box to read messages in plain text only, and then turn on the preview pane or double-click it to open it in a separate window.  My OETool program (free - www.oehelp.com/OETool/) has a button that triggers between plain text and HTML reading that would simplify things.  You can also complain to Facebook on this subject, because they sometimes erroneous messages that OE can not treat, because they conform to the correct Web standards, and only they can fix it.

  • Need to know in detail how to get my Pop3 outlook express mail on windows 7

    Just graduated from XP to the new windows 7 and I need to know how to get my Outlook Express mail.  Need to know how to set up Pop 3.   Reading a few forums, I think the knuckleheads who put this windows 7 as a whole did not anyway to do unless you're a computer expert.   I would have been much better served if they would have put the old XP back on this new computer.   I'm an old PET of 69 year who knows nothing about setting up these things, and unless someone can come in here and talk to me with every little detail step by step what to click on it and where to find it in detail.  It will never happen.  If you would be grateful someone with this kind of knowledge back to me.  Thank you
