• Outlook Express: How to change the default location of mail and press kits?

  I use windows XP with Outlook Express 6 (6.00.2900.5512).
  I want to change the destination of the mail folder. (MY C drive is made of only 6 Gbs, and 5.5 GB is now eaten.)

  It's a bit complicated, so do first a backup of your posts.  See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx

  So what you do is to create a new directory where you want to as the message store to be moved.  Then, in OE, go to tools | Options | Maintenance | Store the file and set this new directory.  Then close OE and reopen it.  OE will then move the store the entire message to this new location.  Do NOT move the files yourself.  If you do, then OE will overwrite the files that you moved and you will lose all your messages.

  So save your messages first, and then create a new directory to the new location and then say OE the new location and when you open it again, it will move the files.

  To clear more room, also go to start | Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Disk Cleanup and which should lead to more space on the disk.

• When sending emails with Outlook Express, they sit in the Outbox and don't move to sent items.

  My system is XP Microsoft w/Internet Explorer 7.  My online service is through netzero.  I started having problems several weeks ago about my Outlook Express.  In the last whe I send a file, he crossed for recipients and also would go directly to my sent folder.  Now adays, occasionally, the info is sent to recipients but does not go to my sent folder and the express pointed out a mistake and put my email in the Outbox.  I have to move it to project from the Outbox folder or the system keeps trying to return.  He goes to the recipients, but not in my sent folder.  What's wrong?

  original title: Microsoft Outlook Express

  You have apparent dbx file corruption.

  Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new folders to send and sent items box after having moved the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.

  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 DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them.  New ones will be created automatically when you open OE.

  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.

  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 all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

  Outlook Express 6 just ate the value of year of my emails.  They seem to have disappeared.  This happened after I was asked if I wanted compact (or was it archive?) my emails.  All hope of recovery?

  Thank you!

  Please read this in its entirety. It includes the restoration of the trash.
   
   
  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:

• Outlook Express opens to maximize the window always.

  Victorinox original title: outlook express.

  Hello everyone.

  I'm new to these forms. so I hope that I've posted to the correct form. Moderators please move my post if I'm in the wrong form.

  My question is: when I opened the window of outlook express it opens in the window expand only.
  I'm not able to resize the window.
  When I try to enter this window with the mouse cursor and drag this window that does not either.
  When I click Restore down the window will minimize in the taskbar.
  the only way I can open re which minimize the window in the task bar it is right-click on it and select optimize.
  also when I right click that minimize button in the task bar and the small box opens, the move, the size and the reduced are grayed out.
  the exact behavior even happens when I open the Task Manager window and the window add / remove programs.

  I am able to enter with the cursor of the mouse normally on IE8 Windows, Notepad window, WordPad and the Control Panel window and re size all of these windows.

  How can I fix?

  I can't think of all the programs I have installed recently.

  I am running Windows XP edition Home 32 x 86 SP3 with all current updates.
  I am running IE8 with all current updates.
  I am running McAffee internet Security with all current updates...
  I think that my skills with windows and computers are a little below average I think.

  I would appreciate a response and assistance :)

  Thanks in advance
  Charles

  Hi Charles,

  Try to connect with different profile and see if the problem persists? Say to connect as an administrator and see if the problem is repeated here.

  If you are already connected as long as administrator, try to create a different profile-> click on Start-> settings-> Control Panel-> users and accounts. (http://www.ehow.com/how_2078860_create-new-user-account-windows.html)

  If everything works well, copy your problematic profile to this new profile data see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811151

  I hope this helps.

• How can I create a list of contacts on Outlook Express. I found the answer in help, but cannot locate elements, on what he asked me to click

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:
  How can I create a group or a list of contacts on Outlook Express.  I found the answer in help, but cannot locate elements, on what he asked me to click

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  If you're running Vista, you have Windows Mail, not Outlook Express. These instructions for adjustment of these two programs.

  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.

  1. in the address book, select the folder in which you want to create a group. Click New in the toolbar, and then click New Group.
  2. the Properties dialog box opens. In the group name box, type the name of the group.
  3. There are several ways to add people to the Group:
  a. to add a person from your address book list, click Select members, and then click a name in the address book list.
  (b) to add a person directly to the group without adding the name to your address book, type the person's name and e-mail address at the bottom of the Properties dialog box and then click Add.
  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.
  4. Repeat for each addition until your group is defined.

  Note

  a. to view a list of your groups separately from the list of address book in the address book on the view menu, make sure that folders and groups is selected.
   
  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).

  Click on the button to. Enter the name of the group using your address. Enter the group in the BCC field.

• My outlook express won't let emails through. I am getting an authorization and then an error will appear.

  Outlook express won't come through

  My outlook express won't let emails through. I am getting an authorization and then an error will appear. Sometimes it will say: reception of messages, but none will come by.  A box appears and says that he put an end to the connection, maybe because of the connection to the server, the long period of inactivity or network connection. Also, I get a message on and which was completely removed several times on the file inbox and delete. I have no idea how to solve this problem or what I did to make it. I've never experienced this before.

  You probably have the widespread corruption of dbx files. Try in a new identity.

  File | Identities | Add the new identity. Create a new one and try it. If all goes well, you can import your messages and address book from the old identity and delete it.

  Note: Do not use the main word in the name of the new identity.

  In addition, follow these guidelines to help 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.

• What is Apple doing to solve the problem of the emails which the bodies are removed and a note informs you that this message has not been downloaded from the server?  It's also appear when a message is placed in the Recycle Bin.

  That made Apple to fix the problem where the body of emails is endangered and there is a note saying the e-mail was not downloaded from the server?  It's also appear on messages that are put in the trash.  I have a pop.earthlink account and understand that it affects the pop accounts.  The problem started after I downloaded IOS 9 and is much worse.  Messages received yesterday are now endangered, however some messages that I received in early November before downloading the new software still exist and are very good.

  Hi Bonnie,.

  It is a user to user forum, anything that apple made to solve a problem so isn't something you find info on here.

  The iOS is not a classic operating system.    I asked that your post moved to the forum of the iPad.

  POP accounts are generally customer (as opposed to the server function) and stored on your device.  If your device on space is insufficient, the settings for the e-mail may restrict downloads on your device, resulting in the message in question.   This is particularly true for all messages that come with attachments or are preformatted html.   Ask your contacts to send messages in plain text.
