Outlook Express E-Mail lost

Recently, my computer crashed and gave a blue screen. I had a local computer repair company, to repair it for me. They ran a virus scan Ad-Aware and my Outlook Express mail was lost. To get my email Outlook Express return account, I had to open a new account, not having my old e-mail messages. How can I recover my old Inbox and sent folders messages?

If you are using Vista, the messages are stored as eml files, then you will get *.eml.  If you use OE, then messages are stored in dbx files and you will need to search for *.dbx.  Seewww.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4 andwww.oehelp.com/backup.aspx .  My DBXpress program (www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/) may be able to help to retrieve messages if you use OE (but it won't help with Winmail).

    Multiple e-mail accounts

    How can I configure two Time Warner Cable Road Runner under Outlook Express e-mail accounts? I wish I could separate emails for each account, but the access or the other at any time.
    You can use two different identities, or if you want to have access to these accounts in identity, set up your accounts and use message rules to move incoming messages.
     
    First, create a local folder to be used as a second Inbox and name it anything you want.  Use it to one of the accounts, as well as the default Inbox for the other.
     
    Then create a message rule.
     
    Where the message comes from the specified account.
    Move it to the specified folder & stop processing more rules.
    Click: specified account and enter the account name for the second Inbox.
    Click: specified folder and select the folder that you created.
    Name the rule.
     
    Move the rule to the top of the list of rules, and incoming messages will be separated into their respective folders.

    Why Microsoft isn't an option in their email clients (Outlook, Outlook Express, Live Mail, hot Mail) block IP addresses that send spam?

    Looks like something aside server.  Not to mention that change IPs and when you go to IPv6, the whole game changes.

    What email client you use that gives you this option now?

    You can block entire domains...  (Outlook in any case, not sure about the rest.)

  • Re: Outlook Express, I've lost the Outbox, sent and Delete

    first of all, I am very poor with computers, and I use Outlook Express for my e-mail.  I lost the sent, Outbox and delete.  I need people, and although I know not easy to put back them, how can I do?  I don't know even how I made them disappear!     I went in the view and even aid tools and leader, but still I can't find out what it takes to put those back on top of my outlook express.  These elements fit under tools in the upper part.  All this makes sense?  I don't even know the right terminology so I hope someone can understand me.  Thank you.

  • How to restore the Outlook Express e-mail messages

    I needed to do a 'clean' of my OS, XP Pro SP3 install.  So I ran a back up prior to the re - install on an external hard drive.  I used integrated firm ware of the external hard drive to perform the back upward.

    After the re-install, I want to get some of the e-mail messages.  I can't find the external hard disk Outlook Express folder, but nothing in the folder has the appearance of a file that is an e-mail message.

    This makes me wonder, where Outlook Express to save e-mail messages, anyway?  Then maybe I could identify the record or file to restore.

    I hope someone can help me with some advice.
    Thank you.

  • I have Outlook Express e-mail Icon stick on opening and does not end is there too much mail, how can I fix it?

    When you click the icon to open my Outlook Express icon (envelope) sticks on the screen of the monitor and does not open. Is there a way to get into the program to remove at least half or the whole of all the e-mail. It was not opening now for several days if I'm afraid it's risk of stuck with e-mail. I have been looking for a job online and get a ton of e-mail. I can get through the control panel and I think I saw the problem, but I don't know how to remove it. Help!

    I welcome suggestions. Rosemary

    Folders.dbx is probably damaged.

    In Windows XP, the files of user OE (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.

  • MS Outlook Express Outbound Mail

    You cannot send GMail via one smtp server other than GMail.

    You must configure the smtp server of GMail in OE to send gmail.
