• How can I stop Outlook Express to import all my emails?

  Twice now when I open outlook express, that I very, very rarely use - my emails go to Tiscali (now TalkTalk) which is my ISP - and outlook express has imported all of my emails from my Tiscali email account;   is the first time about 2 years ago and it imported all of them, about 360 emails and yesterday when I opened outlook express it imported all of them once again, 548 emails. It took me sending hours back to my account email Tiscali, one by one.
  I looked at the settings in outlook express and can not find out why he did and want to disable it will never happen.
  CVan anyone help me?

  All you need to do is, in OE: tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - Check: leave a copy of messages on the server.
   
   

• Cannot receive emails through my Outlook Express 6 account all of a sudden. I have 2 computers set up with it, a Windows XP and the other Windows Vista.

  Cannot receive emails through my Outlook Express 6 account all of a sudden.  I can send messages but not receive. I removed all mail rules and blocked senders and I still cannot receive anything.  I tested it by sending a mail to it through different accounts (gmail, yahoo) so I know that there must be some messages.  I also had people reply to my email that I send to what they do, but I don't get their answers.  I have 2 computers in place, using Windows XP and the other is Windows Vista.  I've never had a problem until now. Any help?

  My server contacted me and told me to check my spam using their webmail account, because it was full.  It seems that when I used the rules of the mail I had clicked on delete from the server, just "do not download".  My spam folder was so full that I couldn't receive. Thanks for all your advice!  Mark as resolved.

• I'm going through webmail with cable cox to outlook or outlook express, but finds it difficult to get the emails to my wife separately from mine.

  Change outlook web mail
  

  I'm going through webmail with cable cox to outlook or outlook express, but finds it difficult to get the emails to my wife separately from mine.  Not sure how they get along with the different email address.  I tried setting up separate accounts and profiles in outlook 2003 and have also tried to separate identities and accounts in outlook express 6.  Any help would be appreciated. TKS Joe Novick

  I can't speak for Outlook, even if it is very similar, but if you have configured the real separate identity in OE, as in needing to switch identities with it, avoid a problem unless you use both the same e-mail address.

  If you use different addresses to your identity, go to tools | Accounts and remove its identity. Vice versa in its identity.

  I use Cox and were three addresses in the three identities without problem.

• Outlook express does not error _ code download new emails 0x8007000E

  Outlook express does not error _ code download new emails 0x8007000E

  out of memory?  a lot of memory!

  Go to file | Identities and setup a new identity.  Then when it works very well, use a file | Import | Messages to bring them from the old identity.  This gives a basis for new and incompetent messages and should fix things.

• After compaction all my emails in Outlook Express 8 I am able to receive more emails, but how can I recover lose them emails?

  original title: IE * compaction

  After compaction in OE8 I lost all emails from the Inbox since August 2010 to present.  I can now receive incoming e-mails, but is it possible to recover my lost mails?  If so, how?  Thank you.

  There is no such thing as OE8 or IE compaction, but I think that's what you ask

  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.

  Why OE insists on compacting folders when I close it? :
  http://www.insideoe.com/FAQs/why.htm#compact
   
  Why mail disappears:

  About file Corruption:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/IE/community/columns/filecorruption.mspx

  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:
  http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  And backup often.

  Currently I have to send all the emails to another account and then am able to open links.

• Outlook Express - cannot delete all emails

  Cannot delete all emails.  irems deleted folder is empty. can still send and receive e-mail

  Hi edaward68,

  1. When did you start to question?

  2. what exactly happens when you try to delete the mails?

  3. do you get error messages or error codes?

  You can try to rename delete point .dbx and check:

  a. Click Start, point to find and then click files or folders.

  b. in the named, box type deleted item.dbx

  (c) in the area to look in, click on your main hard drive (usually drive C), and then click Find now.

  d. right-click on the deleted item.dbx file and then click Rename.

  e. type deleted item.dbxold, and then click ok.

  f. launch Outlook Express. This creates new files. Try to delete e-mails and check.

  Note: You can try to create a new folder and move all messages from the Inbox, and delete items before you rename files.

  Hope this information is useful.

  In the future, to avoid this Corruption:

  N ' not use Inbox or sent items to archive messages.  Move them to local folders created for this purpose.

  -Empty the deleted items folder daily.

  -Frequently perform a manual compact of all OE while records that "work offline".  More on http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm

  -Do not cancel automatic compacting, where it would happen and do not try to close OE via Manager tasks or stop your Automatic compaction machine can take place.

  -Disable e-mail scanning in your antivirus application.  It can cause corruption (i.e., loss of messages) and offers no additional protection:

  Always display the complete text and correct all errors when you ask about a problem.

  ISPS don't like people using their networks to forward mail from other networks.  The symptoms you describe are usually the result of not properly is authenticating with the outgoing server or the use of a non encrypted SMTP connection (that is, port 25 instead of 587 or 465 or whatever your email port provider requires for encryption).

• Outlook express disappeared the day overnight, as well as emails and account settings

  2 questions:

  (1) overnight, outlook express disappeared, along with all its parameters. I understand that this is now transferred to windows mail...   HOWEVER, how can I get my POP settings, etc., (to set up windows mail) as well as all my emails stored?  These important!

  (2) all my favorites from Internet Explorer disappeared...

  I am running Windows Vista and have made for at least 2 years...  Suddenly disappeared from one day to the next.

  Outlook Express is part of XP and has never been a part of Vista...

  Vista came with Windows Mail as default mail program.

  Everything you did, try this:

  Try a system restore to a Date before the problem began:

  Restore point:

  Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

• Outlook express 6 rebounds all incoming and outgoing messages on Wndows xp.

  I posted this question earlier, but apparently to the wrong forum.  I deleted all the messages in my nbox, sent items, deleted projects... All incoming and outgoing messages are bounced back indicating that the bytes are at their limit.  I don't know if the messages are stored on my server or not.  Don't know how to check.

  Is there a solution for this?

  In addition to the other suggestions, try to go to the file. Identities and setup a new identity.  Add your e-mail account to this identity and see if it will download messages and delete what is on the server.  The files can be corrupted in the old identity and may not delete messages from the server.  You can also contact your provider and e-mail them to check on errors.

• Can someone help me with the message of outlook express error 0x800CCC0D. I can't receive emails

  I get the following error message: the host 'pop.ipa.net' is not found. Please check that you have entered the server name correctly. Account: * address email is removed from the privacy * Mail account ', server: 'pop.ipa.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, Socket error: 11001, error number: 0x800CCC0D.  I believe I have the correct information, but still cannot receive e-mail.

  Its possible your Inbox is corrupt.  Move all messages out of it to another folder created by the user.  Then close OE and delete the inbox.dbx file (hidden).  Then at the start of OE will create a new.  See if that fixes it.

  If so, it's a good time to save your messages.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6
