My outlook express will not delete some e-mail, how to fix this?
I tried to remove a few emails and it won't let me. I was able to move it to the junk e-mail folder, but not delete it. I also can't just delete it in the junk e-mail folder. Any ideas?
First of all, OE doesn't have a native junk folder. However, I assume that you have the damaged dbx files.
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.
Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:

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:

Recently, I find I'm unable to send emails to any address btinternet, all other servers, for example, hotmail, sky, talktalk.net seem to be OK. I am able to receive emails from btinternet.
"When you try to send e-mail to btinternet I get a message - Mail Delivery System - Delivery Status Notification (failure) the reason for the problem 5.1.0 address unknown 554" error message unauthorized (320) "
If I go directly to the server of talktalk, I can then send emails to btinternet.
Any ideas?

Windows Update - Outlook Express will not download new email after the last update
After you have installed the latest update of Windows XP files (KB972270; KB977840; KB955759; KB890830) and my OUtlook Express will not download my new messages. Error message occurs sating that a file is possibly corrupted and use Scandisk to repair. This has happened on my computer and my wife using the same basic configuration. Could not resolve the problem before doing a system restore to a previous Restore Point before the update of Windows. So my Windows Updater is no longer needed.

Your Inbox is damaged due to become bloated and/or lack of compaction.
1: view | Current view. Show all Messages is verified?
2: If Yes to the #1, see if you have an Inbox.bak file in the Recycle Bin of Windows and if so, what is the date of creation?
3: If Yes to 1 and 2, after the return before doing anything else.
4: If so #1 and not #2, you will need a tool to recover lost messages if you wish.

Outlook Express will not accept accept a change of password to connect to the server
Outlook Express has been working very well to access my Verizon email account. I had the opportunity to change my verizon account password. Now, I can not Outlook Express to accept the change of password. I've seen several comments on this subject in previous years, but for some reason some can't find a resolution for this.
Hi Bruce and Vondo,
The problem has been fixed. I got to speak to a representative of different Verizon tech who confirmed that the problem was indeed a problem with Verizon and had nothing to do with Microsoft. After confirming that I had taken all the possible correct steps, with the help of a L2 tech 3, he made the necessary adjustments on the side of Verizon. Although he did not specify what has been done to correct the problem, he says that my account is in a loop of "authentication", which was caused when I changed my password for Verizon. It should not have happened, but he recognized immediately what was wrong wihen it looked at my account.
Congratulations to him personally to admit that it was a matter of Verizon and correct the problem.

get out has been requilring you click a button to download the images coming in when opening an email. This button is not displayed and the images are not displayed in newsletters, etc.
so, dave and Divic, I just remembered! I thought about all the boxes with the little red exes in them... I have the solution! why it happened, I don't know, but fixed it! [I am senile that part of the time - I'm just aging, being widely exceeded my 03:20 and 10] I have had this my ' puter tips produce for years and have not had to use it.
One of the main areas where people can see the red X's in their email. If you use Outlook Express and have problems to see pictures in your email, open it and go to Tools, Options and choose the Security tab make sure the box "block images and other external content in HTML e-mail" is unchecked. Now, if you send an e-mail message and people are complained to you in the pictures does not show up, try this: open OE and go to Tools, Options, tab to send . Under the Mail Sending Format section, make sure that HTML is selected, and then click the HTML settings button. From there on, check the box "send pictures with messages" is checked. That should solve all your problems of mail.
