  This is due to floating files, the result of many messages in the Inbox, or lack of compaction.

  Move all messages you want to save out of the Inbox, deleted items, and sent items in local folders, you create. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

  If there is no message in the Inbox you want to, but can not move after return, before doing anything more.

  The location of messages.

  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 files Inbox.dbx, Sent Items.dbx, and Deleted Items.dbx and remove 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:

• Outlook express 6 will not let me the photos 'BEFORE' that I get

  I use Outlook Express 6 and cannot transfer photos that I receive in my Inbox. The pictures show well in my email, but when I send to my friends, only the 'TEXT' is considered. There is a box with an "X" in it where the pictures are supposed to be. Someone know why? I "CHECKED" the function "SEND PICTURES WITH the EMAIL" under
  OPTIONS', 'SEND '.

  For some messages, images coming along well.  Try to send a message with a picture to yourself and then send it to yourself and see if you still get the image.  If Yes, then this is the specific messages you want to convey, that probably doesn't conform to Internet standards.  So instead of the message, use Message | Forward so that attachment, then the images will display correctly.

  I have adobe Premiere elements 13. It will not let me delete audio or do fade in or out. I can move the yellow to the bottom line until the volume reads - 0.0, but the noise is still there during playback. I can click on fade in and fade out and the yellow line that chart volume takes a strong recovery or dip at the beginning or at the end of the clip, but there is no change in volume when I play back. What I am doing wrong?

  Rickey

  Thanks for the follow-up report.

  Just a lit bulb. Maybe the answer, maybe a spleen.

  Look carefully at the audio track of the timeline in the vicinity of title of the file.

  

  The title of your file audio timeline shows: level of Volume or something else. If something else, click the tiny triangle where

  the red arrow in the screen shot is sharp and select the Volume and then level so that you end up with

  Volume: level as shown in the screenshot.

  Hope it's the factor involved.

• Oulook Express 6 it has an error and will not let me delete the email

  Original title: OUTLOOK EXPRESS 6 WINDOWS XP

  There out wrong and won't let me delete the email.  He still receives new e-mail.

  no problem viewing or respond.

  Anyone know an easy solution?

  the error code:

  An unknown error has occurred. Account: name, Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800C0133

  Do as I have indicated above, but instead of moving most of the messages in your Inbox, all move them and delete the Inbox.dbx file as well.

  If you move all messages from the Inbox for a reason, do the above and then come back and move messages in the Inbox and then delete the Inbox.dbx with OE closed box.

  It is reasonable to assume that you have Outlook Express Version 6 and not Outlook 2007? If so, see this.
