Outlook Express 6 - cannot send messages

• Outlook Express 6 - cannot send emails.

  \\first time in 6 years that I had no problem with OE. All of a sudden, I find that I continue to receive but can't send emails. Error message says "Protocol SMTP, Port 25. Secure SSL, error 10060 Socket error no 0x800CCCOE. I tried to change the port to 587 but no change. I also ran 'telnet smtp.gct21.net 25' and that's ok - SMTP not blocked not any ideas to solve the problem?

  If you have the ability to access webmail, check and verify that it works very well.  Otherwise try to remove your e-mail account and then close and reopen OE and add it back again.  As Bruce says, make sure that the antivirus software is not interfering.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

• Outlook Express says cannot send e-mail because of lack of memory.

  With the help of OE I get a failure of shortage of memory trying to send an email of 353 MB.   I have a memory of 1.99 GB, XP3 and closed other programs.

  What is going on?

  aquaries

  I tried the solution of Steve and unresolved issue.  However, to instead a message of lack of memory the program OE plant.

  I tried to send smaller attachments in zip (79 M) records and the program when you select the attachment, it blocks.

  I tried a 10 M zip file and the method was successful.  So somewhere between 10 and 79M EO can respond and locks upward.

  Has OE code messages and he needs memory and time for it.  You take the system to its limits and there is not a lot we can do about it.  You're just going to have to be stuck with smaller attachments sending, or use some other file transfer protocol that does not have OE.  You could try webmail, if you have access to it.

• Windows XP SP3 - Outlook Express receives and sends mail but do not delete received messages. Can you help?

  Windows XP SP3 - Outlook Express receives and sends messages, but do not delete received messages.  Can you help?

  You have corruption of 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:
  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:

  Try to go to file | Identities and upward together a new identity and then add your email account it and see if it works.  If this is the case, then use a file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.  See also www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 to ensure that you do not have interference with the delivery of your mail anti-virus.

• Outlook Express 6 - can receive messages but not send - error number: 0x800CCC0E

  Original title: Outlook Express 6 - can receive messages but not send

  I recently installed SP3 on my Windows XP machine and installed Internet Explorer 8. After that, Outlook stopped mail (still receives, if) and gave me this error message:

  The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.qmcompany.com', server: 'mail.qmcompany.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 587, secure (SSL): no, Socket error: 10060, error number: 0x800CCC0E

  I tried everything but reinstall Outlook Express. Is there a compatibility issue with IE 8? Any help would be appreciated.

  If you can, open OE and click file | Identities and establish a new identity.  Then see if it works.  If you can not open OE to do this, then move all the dbx files to another directory of their current location.  To reset the message store, which you should be able to open OE then.

• I use XP and when I try to open Outlook Express I get this message. "Outlook Express could not be started because MSOE." DLL could not be initialized. Outlook Express is not installed properly

  Last night, everything seemed normal. When I try to open Outlook Express, I get this message. "Outlook express could not be started.  The application could not open message store outlook express.  Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full.  Contact Microsoft Support for assistance. (0x800700C1, 193) "after this message, the message above was posted. I bought and ran a program called FixCleaner with the same results. I also cleaned my disk and more 66 G remains to use and have a lot of available memory.

  Thank you all for your help, but I gave up and took it to my computer guru and fixed it. He said there where a few old accounts in the computer and registry was messed up and it solved the problem and now it works.

  THANKS again!

• When I went to open Outlook Express a pop-up message reported a problem and said he had to close (which is). Since then, I was unable to open my mail.

  When I went to open Outlook Express a pop-up message reported a problem and said he had to close (which is).  Since then, I was unable to open my mail.  What can I do?

  original title: exit express does not open.  What can I do?

  If Outlook Express does not open, Folders.dbx is corrupt.

  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.

  The path to the message will be very similar to this:

  C:\Documents and Settings\Your User of utilisateur\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\ {long string of letters & numbers} \Microsoft\Outlook Express

  With OE closed, find the Folders.dbx file and delete it.  Another will be created automatically when you open OE.

  Note these possible side effects:

  When you re - start OE, it will build a new index of all *.dbx files it can read and create a new Folders.dbx. However, understand that you will lose the mail directory structure and message rules will probably have to be edited.

• Outlook Express downloads e-mail messages for the 2nd time which have been read and deleted a few weeks ago.

  Outlook Express downloads e-mail messages for the 2nd time which have been read and deleted a few weeks ago.  This happens periodically.  Repeated messages are usually a week.

  Maybe they are still on the server (server of your ISP). Make sure that you don't leave copies of messages downloaded from the ISP server that may cause duplicate messages to download.

  It's the only thing I can think of.

  If you are unsure how to check your messages via the Internet site of the ISP, then check with them about how you do that. TaurArian [MVP] 2005-2010 - Update Services
