• In Outlook express may not include sound

  When you send a message, you should be able to include sound clicking format on background.  But the background is not available.   I reinstalled outlook express, but it makes no difference.  I hope someone can help me because Microsoft Help wants $99 to try to fix it.

  Define "not available". Do you add noise but can't hear it? Are these wave or midi files? Any other format will not work.
   
  The volume setting is-10000-0-10000 off voltage and 0 being full volume.
   
  Before inserting the background sound, that you make sure that your volume control is correct. Double-click the "speaker" of the clock icon. For a MIDI file, it will use the volume control marked "SW Synth" or something similar. It may vary according to your sound card.
   
  You can check your settings by clicking on the Source tab at the bottom of the Compose Message window and the search for this tag and set the volume to zero (0).
   
  If it isn't already there, finds out. Source Edit - check it out.
  Basically, just increase the volume for all formats.
   
  PS You can not reinstall OE without having to reinstall XP. It is integrated.
   

• Outlook Express - icon and Mail notification sound?

  Something happened to my Outlook Express 6.00.2900.5512. I used to have an icon that would come in my taskbar at the bottom right of my screen (I think it's what his name) and chimes would be ding when I received the mail. It does not now.

  The only thing I've done is replace my dead battery backup last week by the same model.

  Ideas?

  Thank you

  The sound is not related to this icon. Missing the two? If OE is open and that you send yourself a message you hear the sound?

  Right click on the taskbar | Properties | Tab taskbar | Customize. Find notification of new mail and make sure that the behavior is always display. (It will not appear if there are no unread mail).

  In the control panel. Sounds and Audio devices | Sounds, scroll to its new mail and test. You can also choose a different sound, as it is possible that it has become corrupted.

• Windows XP / Outlook Express - email recovery - complex

  The two profiles on the computer, missing emails from files. One profile, I could not restore no problem, (accessed through local settings / application data / identities / etc and copied to a folder I created then imported), but the other does not.

  I was able to locate through search .dbx files and open the containing folder, but when I sailed by a file in the same place, there is no files there. I copied and pasted the files into a folder I created on the desktop and used in OE import feature, navigating to the file (making sure to highlight the OE6 store directory) and he went through the motions, but the files are still empty. Some of the files have been restored even if there is a file .dbx for them. I'm puzzled. My mother is the one with the messed up account could not be restored, and she said she found the files somewhere (I think in the trash, even if she can't remember) and it has selected 'restoration' date at which they disappeared, but obviously they does not return to his e-mail account.

  I even tried to save the folder with files .dbx to my dad and import documents in his e-mail account. Some of the files had, but none of the old emails.

  Any suggestions? The files were found and displayed a size when I look at their properties, then there should be data there. Please help, some of these emails are the only copies of information for my uncle who died and it is quite important because my mother is his executrix (that sounds dirty, I know). Thank you!

  If you find the dbx files you need, you can not import in the usual way without Folders.dbx is included. You can do it manually. These instructions are assuming that the dbx files are on the desk, but just replace this site with anywhere where you saved them.
   
   
  Open OE and create a folder with the * exact * same name as on the desktop. Open the new folder, and then close OE. (You must do). Go to Windows Explorer and find the folder of the message store for your OE identity, but do not open it. Click on the desktop and drag the file from the office in the right pane the OE store folder in the left pane. Guest - «you do want to overwrite...» » ? Click Yes.
   
  * Note * if you moved the storage folder Outlook Express from its default location on the C drive on another drive, drag the dbx file to a location on this drive and not the office.

• Outlook Express won't send or answer...

  For the 1st time in about 7 years... I can't send emails on my Outlook Express.  It receives very well but I can not send or answer.  Any suggestions?

  If you use OE, it sounds as if you have message store corruption. Try to go to file | Identities and setup a new identity.  Add your email account it and then see if it works fine.  If she then use file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.

• Outlook Express 6. Error code: 0x800ccc0f

  Hi all

  I'm trying to solve this problem on my computer at home that my parents use to e-mail. They use Outlook Express 6, (because my father is Office Outlook too complicated!) and get this error message when started OE6 / trying to send/receive:
  "Your server has terminated suddenly the connection. The possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. "Account:"Philip Edwards - BT Yahoo! Mail', server: 'mail.btinternet.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800CCC0F.
  
  
  OE6 continues to download the same 3 messages, coming to the 4th then this error message is displayed. It seems to be able to see how many messages it must download, because the sound out of the i.e. message 2 of 13, continues to go up.
  I looked on various forums, and none seem to have exactly this problem. As far as I know, anti virus software has not been updated (its McAfee Security Center) and they had for centuries. Internet connects very well, so no problem there.
  Someone at - it ideas on how to solve this problem? Please keep the answers simple, although I am technical interest, I do not understand most of the jargon.
  Thanks in advance to anyone who can solve this problem.

My machine think that outlook express is my default mail server even after Windows Live Mail my default. Want to just git outlook outside meaning sound system was replaced by winows live mail anyway

  John,
  Are you sure you search after clicking on "Add / Remove Windows components.
  The point of the option to be clicked is located in the left panel of the window!
   
  Perhaps your search item in the programs installed (where you have your stuff personal, but also many things from Microsoft.
   
  It can take anyone who is there looking and can not find Outlook Express.
   
  By elsewhere, just let Outlook Express only is not a big problem.
  It won't take much of your disk space.

• No notification of new message in Outlook Express

  I check the box to let me know the arrival of a new email and with sound howerver, that it does not work only when I go to Outlook Express how can I get this to work? Thank you

  Well, OE should be opened for a notification, but it can be minimized in the taskbar. If you get no sound notification in this case, open the control panel. Sounds and Audio devices | Sounds. Scroll until further notice by email and make sure that there is a selected sound. If there is, try a different sound, as a test.

  If you still have no sound, try a new identity.

  You may have a damaged identity especially if it's the default main identity. File | Identity | 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.

• Outlook Express 6 when you pass the preview pane of mail identities is empty

  I use Outlook Express 6 with 2 identities.  I use these identities for months.  Now, when I pass the identity I open with, I see the list of e-mail messages, but when I click on one, the preview pane is empty and if I double click to open the message sound Blanck.

  I could solve the problem for a while out of Outlook Express and then restarting it.  It would work for a while then the cutting would begin.

  Now, the only way I can switch back and still see the content of the email is to change the identity of the program starts by, close the program and restart.

  I haven't added something new to my computer or upgrade any software recently that the normal microsoft updates coming automatically.

  I searched the forums and didn't find that particular problem.

  Any ideas are appreciated.

• I lost my files in my outlook express Inbox. How can I get back them?

  I lost my files in my outlook express Inbox. How can I get back them?

  The email you see in sent items. Is - this mail you thought you deleted a long time ago? If so, it almost sounds like you had an old identity.

  File | Identities | Manage identities. Is there more than one list? If Yes, go to the other identity. If not, read on...

  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? :

  About file Corruption:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/IE/community/columns/filecorruption.mspx

  Recovery tools:

  If you use XP/SP2 or SP3, and are fully patched, 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:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  And backup often.

• How to import Outlook Express 6 directories?

  I am currently using Outlook Express 6 with Microsoft Office 2003. How to copy the address book in Mozilla?

  There is no cut and paste. Simply not possible.
  There are a few changes you can make for Thunderbird to use the windows address book. See http://thunderbirdtweaks.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/windows-contacts.html

  Note that the windows address book is stored in a WAB file and you will need to move to a new computer because it does not part of Thunderbird. Later versions of Windows do import the contacts folder to the very simple windows point and click action.

• My older version of outlook express has several problems, will be these imported into a new account in thunderbird

  My older version of Outlook Express has acquired several problems. It is time for a change, these errors will be imported into a new account in Thunderbird. I hope that everything is based on the conviction that the two programs are completely different.

  You don't say what problems you have with OE, then how everyone has to guess?

  There is no such thing as a "Thunderbird account. You do not have an account with your email provider. To access this account, you can use OE, or Thunderbird.
  But Thunderbird isn't your e-mail provider.

  Confirmed workaround solutions:

  • All by composing an email open the address book and select the list you want to send, to highlight all the names in the list and drag them to the To: box. This example uses your existing data without changing it.
  • Replace white "" between the words in the descriptions of these lists with an underscore "_". This requires modification of your descriptions of mailing list (s).
