Outlook express 6 leaves the messages I send in my Outbox, gives me an error message to check details of which there is none.

Outlook express 6 leaves the messages I send in my Outbox, for giving me an error message to check the details that there is none and then sending the message every 8 minutes except if it is deleted from the Outbox.  How can I fix

original title: Outlook Express 6 questions
You have apparent dbx file corruption.
 
Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox, and then create the new box of sent, and sent items folders after you move all the messages that you want to put in 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.

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 
 
Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email

Note that for some AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the program and reinstall in custom Mode and uncheck analysis when the option is the result of e-mail messages.
 
Compact often as specified above.
 
And backup often.

  • To free up disk space, Outlook Express can compact the messages. This can take up to a few minutes. OK Cancel

    I started getting this issue of dialog start until recently. It appears every time on start up. I do not understand how or where it comes from because I do not use Outlook Express - I use Outlook. I always Cancel, but it always comes back. What has caused this? Is this a virus (my security software said no)? It would be safe to respond ok to clean? Thank you.

    Well, I see that Microsoft watches this question!   I also get this and I don't use Outlook at all, nor is it even listed in my control panel of the installed software.  I thought that if I could uninstall it it would go, but there is nothing that I can uninstall.  A response would be nice.

    Outlook and Outlook Express are two different programs. Outlook Express is a part of XP, so it cannot be uninstalled. If you get the compact quick to Outlook Express and are even use it, reset the registry only works for a few days, or even hours. When it starts up again, consider the following.

    If Windows Search is installed on this machine, which is the likely culprit. You have to tell to stop indexing OE.

    In the control panel. Indexing Options. Change. Clear the check box for Outlook Express.

  • When I try to send emails via outlook express, I get the following error message:

    When I try to send and email using Outlook Express, I get the following error message:

    The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'HotHot', server: 'smtp.live.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, secure (SSL): Yes, Socket error: 10060, error number: 0x800CCC0E

    Any help gratefully received. David

    Ok thank you. I received three messages from you, two of the demon and the other Hotmail.

    Hotmail has helpfully includes the originating IP address, so I was able to check further. There is no WHOIS data for it (a bad sign to start), but it is not in the CBL. Read this page to see why it is listed and take the appropriate action. Once you are convinced that your computer - and another using the same network - are clean, you can use the link at the bottom of the CBL page to remove from the list the IP address.

    I still don't know where FCMA comes into it, and diagnostic tests in the NDR is incorrect. It is not the content of the message that is at fault, but I suspect that the block list.

    Good luck!

  • 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

    I can receive e-mail using Outlook Express but am not able to send. My email is a live.com... Here's an error message that I keep getting...

  • Outlook Express not allowing the opening of e-mail

    Outlook Express; Downloads of the thin server, messages to delete all right, I can't open any email or create a new one. Immediately, he tells me that he's 'met '.

    and error and needs to close"invites me to send the error report to Microsoft. Then it stops responding all together and I have to open the Task Manager to close. Analyses of viruses are all clean. No update is not downloaded from Microsoft before it happens.

  • Outlook Express: Shortcut in "Tools/Message rules/Mail" Possible?

    I discovered ways to create shortcuts to a large number of Windows functions, so that I don't have to click on the menus and submenus to make things happen, for example 'Safely Remove Hardware' is:

    "Shell32.dll, Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe '.

    But I always applied the rules of messages manually to empty my OE Inbox. It is click on ' Tools / Message rules / Mail', followed by 'Apply now' and selecting what rules I want to apply for.

    Is there a way to get this function works with a single click - a 'shortcut '?

    Best regards, Roger.

    Sorted! Thanks to AutoHotkey.com :)

    I wrote a macro that checks if OE is running, and if not the macro runs it. Then the macro activates the window and sends alt - T, R, M, and alt - A. Job done!

    The Windows key + SPACEBAR active macro:

    #space:
    IfWinExist Inbox - Outlook Express
    {
    WinActivate
    }
    on the other
    {
    Run "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe".
    WinWait Inbox - Outlook Express
    WinActivate
    }
    Send! T R M! A

  • All of a sudden Outlook Express cannot find the files created by the method of attachment.

    Outlook Express cannot find the newly created files to attach. The files are there in My Documents and Outlook Express can still see all the old files, but each new file for the last month is not seen and cannot be attached. I even typed in the name of the file and it says can not find the file of the same name. I send you the files now through 'Send it' a service online, but complicated to use another program. I checked the 'views' and they seem ok. Help, please!

    It is a long shot, but try it in a new 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.
