Not able to send from Outlook Express on Windows XP:

I can receive the mail, but cannot send.  I get the following error message:

An unknown error has occurred. Account: 'pop.gmail.com', server: 'smtp.gmail.com', Protocol: SMTP, server response: 421 cannot establish SSL with SMTP server 173.194.76.109:465, SSL_connect error 5', Port: 25, secure (SSL): Yes, Server error: 421, error number: 0x800CCC67
What can I do?
Thank you!

Try going to tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Servers for gmail account and see what is the port number for the SMTP server.  Try to 465.

Also make sure that you use the correct settings here regarding whether SSL should be checked.  Visit the gmail Web see if you have the correct settings.

And make sure that the antivirus is not interfere.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  • Import e-mail messages from Outlook Express in Windows Live Mail?

    I have recently moved to a new PC with Win7 and have been using Live Mail - more often with success, I thought with the exception of one or two faults, but I'll probably post a question on those.
    On the audit of my old PC today, when I open Oulook Express have been downloaded more than 100 emails that have not appeared in Live Mail - dating back to the time I went.
    I tried to export these messages of OE, put it on a USB key and then import in LM LM do not seem to recognize them - these are the dbx files. Suggestions anyone please?
    Thank you in advance.
    Jeff.

    If both computers use the same e-mail address, you must do this to get the messages on both.
     
    On both machines: tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - Check: leave a copy of messages on the server.
     
    On a single computer only, make sure to delete messages after X days to satisfy your allocated space that you get from your server.

  • How to transfer a list of contacts from Outlook Express to Windows Mail Contact Group

    Hello

    We have a XP computer running Outlook express and a Vista computer running Windows mail to work, we have the contact groups on our Outlook Express that we want to transfer in windows mail, is it possible. I tried using the export and import function on both and it does not work. I can't wait to hear your advice.

  • transfer of mail from outlook express in windows mail

    I just installed a new drive on my vista dell calculation running after the failure of the old drive. I could get all my old data except e-mail from an external drive that was being automatic backup of vusta. I was using outlook express on your old computer. On the new disc from the dell software required that I used Windows mail. Mail program says he can import files from outlook express, but it didn't import empty files for me. When I look at the folders.dbx file, it only contains e-mail before 2007 and seems to correspond to the email I have uploaded from an older computer in 2007. How can I recover my missing email? Is it possible to reinstall outlook express? I still have the old external hard drive failed and the backup data on the hard drive.

    (1) that I can't do is delete the recovered Messages folder. A while back, I was able to delete empty files individually, one by one until I got rid of all. But now nothing happens when I delete things. I use Live updates for current email, so I can survive, but...

    (2) concerning the recovery of the hard drive, I don't mind try the program you suggested, but don't know how to connect the old drive. I remember reading something on a low-cost device that can be connected to a port... if USB, maybe you can direct me to a site where this is discussed, I would be grateful.
    Otherwise, I'll look for a local repair tomorrow show.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    1: tools | Options | Maintenance | Advanced | Store folder will show you the path to the Windows Mail message store. You may be able to remove the Messages recovered there. Do it with closed WinMail.

    2: If you want to get into the innards of your machine, it should be a space and drop side of your current drive. Otherwise, I would look at a store. Bruce Hagen MS - MVP [Mail]

  • during the transition from Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail, is the address book data stored and also the info in files

    I'm afraid that if I upgrade the form Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail, I will lose all e-mail addresses in my address book current as well as the information contained in the files - models etc.

    If you install WLMail on your XP machine, it has to import messages and addresses automatically and nothing will be lost of OE.
     
    If you like WLMail better than OE, you are a person better than I am.

  • Cannot open emails from Outlook Express on Windows 7

    Original title: Outlook express on exploere8

    I just bought a new computer which has windows 7 and explorer 8 is installed, my old computor was an outlook express program that has lots of emails stored in it. I don't seem to be able to open these emails outlook express doesn't automatically come with explorer8?

    Outlook Express is an e-mail Client program.  Internet Explorer is a web browser.  They are completely different animals.

    Windows 7 computers lack any e-mail client program (unless the manufacturer of the computer or the seller has installed a). Therefore, you will need to download and install your own choice email client.

    Microsoft to promote Windows Live Mail, the free successor to Outlook Express.  You can download the program ofhttp://download.live.com.   WLMail belongs to the series of programs, Windows Live, which includes Windows Live Messenger, etc.. However, you just install the items you need.

    At present, there are two versions of WLMail available for download.  The latest stable version of the suite of programs live was "Wave 3"(version number 14.0.8117.0416).  However, you also have the option to install the version 'Wave 4' of the various programs.  I have no experience of the Wave 4 programs (which are beta (or test) releases), so cannot advise.

    Once you have installed WLMail, you will need to copy the messages from your old computer to Win XP files in a directory on your new Windows 7 computer.  Then, you will be able to open WLMail and click on file / import - import messages and other data.  With the version of Wave 3, the menu bar (which provides the file / edit / view / go / tools / Actions & help commands) is hidden by default.  To display the menu bar on an ad hoc basis, press Ctrl. To display the menu bar, click Alt and M together. Then, press M (or select "Show menu bar").

    You will find further instructions to the http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/importing-your-e-mail-contacts-and-calendar-into-windows-live-mail. However, a Google search led me to www.pcdon.com/080113OutlookExpress-WindowsLiveMail.html, which you can find easier to understand.
