• 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!

• My older version of outlook express has several problems, will be these imported into a new account in thunderbird

  My older version of Outlook Express has acquired several problems. It is time for a change, these errors will be imported into a new account in Thunderbird. I hope that everything is based on the conviction that the two programs are completely different.

  You don't say what problems you have with OE, then how everyone has to guess?

  There is no such thing as a "Thunderbird account. You do not have an account with your email provider. To access this account, you can use OE, or Thunderbird.
  But Thunderbird isn't your e-mail provider.

  I can send and receive Outlook e-mail messages and can send emails on Outlook Express, but cannot receive them on Outlook Express. Get the 0x800C0133 error message number.   Problem seems to be with the program Outlook Express and think I need to reinstall.  How do you do that?

  Move any message you want to save to a local folder that you create. Then, remove the problem of Inbox as follows.
   
  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 | View.
   
  With OE closed, find the box of Inbox.dbx and delete it. Another will be created automatically when you open OE.
   
  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.
   
  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.

• My outlook express has stopped working and I get this error message, "the connection to the server has failed..." »

  My outlook express no longer works and I get this error: the connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop-server', server: 'pop-server', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, Socket error: 10061, error number: 0x800CCC0E. Can someone tell what to do?

  Make sure that you can access your e-mail via webmail, if you have this option to ensure that it is not a problem on the server.  Then locate the antivirus interference and ensure that the analysis of the electronic mail is disabled (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).  Try to remove your e-mail account and then close OE and then add it back again and then see if it works.

  Thank you

  It seems to be a corruption of dbx file. Easy to fix.
   
  Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox (if you can) 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.

• Outlook Express has suddenly stopped saving e-mail sent to my folder "Sent items".

  It's never happened before many years of using Outlook Express. The box 'Save a copy of the messages in the 'Sent items' folder' under Options, send is checked. I tried unchecking and then check that box without success. I also tried to uninstall and reinstall Outlook Express without success. Someone has an idea of what is wrong or how to fix this?

I tried unchecking and then check that box without success. I also tried to uninstall and reinstall Outlook Express without success. Someone has an idea of what is wrong or how to fix this?

  I just discovered that my computer's clock had accidentally got into withdrawal per month. I have reset the clock and now sent emails go properly in the 'Sent items' folder Furthermore, all e-mails I thought were missing were in the "Sent items" folder as well - they were just with e-mails from last month. The 'Sent items' folder has not been corrupted. Operator error. Duh!

• Outlook Express has lost more than a year value of the mail - how can I get that back?

  OE 6.00.2900.5512 xpsp 0804.3 - 2008 Win XP - SP3 and all updates applied.

  I do NOT have an identity that is separate in OE, but in local folders, I put about 5 different folders and mail, as well as rules of mail from for address X, goes into the X folder. mail coming to address go to folder Y etc..

  One of my folders (let's call it the X folder) have mail in there go back until 2008. There is, to the closing of OE, three days I received the message that to save space, OE wanted compact stuff, so I let him do as usual.

  Everything continued to work as usual, but yesterday, something has gone wrong. I turned on the computer at around 10:00, received and responded to approximately five emails in X folder (as well as e-mails to and from other addresses/folders) and everything was great.

  However, a few hours later, I noticed the missing emails. The last email now in the folder X is dated from 16/11/2009 and they age, which dates back to 24/02/2008 - but all the mail in the folder X dated between 11/16/2009 and disappeared, something like 900, maybe even a thousand or several messages, gone.

  That's happened and how do I get it all back?

  Thank you.

  PS all other folders are normal and have letter of 2009 and 2010 in them.

  Two reasons the most common for what you describe is disruption of the compacting process, (never touch anything until it's finished), or bloated folders. More about that below.

  Recovery methods:

  If you use XP/SP2 or SP3, and are fully patched, then you should have a backup of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin (or possibly the message store), copied as bak files.

  To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first find the location of the message store.

  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, the .dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in the Solution Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder options | View.

  Close OE and in Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file, then drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.

  Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.

  First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.

  If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.

  If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
   
  If you have not then bak copies of your dbx files in the Recycle Bin:

  DBXpress run in extract disc Mode is the best chance to recover messages:
  http://www.oehelp.com/DBXpress/default.aspx

  And see:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4

  A general warning to help avoid this in the future:

  Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They finally are damaged. Create your own folders defined by the user for mail storage and move your mail to them. Empty the deleted items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 300 MB, and also empty as is possible to default folders.

  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:
