• OUTLOOK EXPRESS 'out going mail' gets stuck and it then sends 3 to 5 times

  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.

  I ran chdsk /r and it found a few "surface errors.

  The machine is very dusty inside and I will be (carefully and everything in being grounded) clean the machine before the reformat.

  It will be a couple of translated days I can get back to it, but I followed of will be up/check for other answers.

• Why do my files disappear? SOLVED. Cause - * outlook * is out of control, to call

  I recently started to receive messages pop up at the bottom right of my screen stating: "current operation has failed..." "It happened when opening my mailbox, my delete and my junk mail. And sometimes at the same time all my aliases and their records will disappear leaving only my main address. It all mysteriously reappears, but I don't know if it's something I did to try to get that back, or if it's just random.

  Everything was going well for a while. He seems to have nothing to do with something I've done. Last night Thunderbird started asking my password again and rejected. I didn't know there was a synchronization process. Now, I can not my mail on my iPad. Tried to reset, but can not get mail on each device. I have Thunderbird 38.3.0. Tried to start the synchronization process. Refused password but when I asked to reset I thought that the account already exists. Cannot get by e-mail. Cannot reset. Account exists but does not work. Very frustrated.

  All indications are, that is not a problem of thunerbird

  Create a new Folders.dbx.

  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.

  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. A new one will be created when you open OE.

• In Outlook express, how do I set up a 'out of office' message please?

  In Outlook express, how do I set up a 'out of office' message please?

  If you do this, you must let your computer 24/7, be connected to the Internet and open your e-mail program. If you want to do this anyway, the link below will show you how do it. One thing I would say is that where it says to create a rule and change you it to check for all Messages, and that the rule for the people in your address book. Otherwise you will answer Spam as well and could end up in an infinite loop of rebounds.

• Outlook express mail out stick in Outbox

  I hope someone can help me with this one: OUTLOOK EXPRESS:

  My sent emails are stuck in the Outbox folder, as this is the new email I write. The messages seem to be trying to get out, but the error code
  OX800CCCOD keeps coming back. Incoming emails are fine.
  I have configured Outlook Express myself in the past, but this one left me speechless! I tried to uncheck the box "log in using the same password", change the port number from 25 to 2525 and other suggestions on the net: nothing helped.
  My computer works very well in all the other respect... I hope that this is just one step that needs to be corrected [a system restore yeided no results].
  I hope someone can help,
  Thank you, Robert Smith.

  YW. So you have done have to remove Mail from the port configuration. That's what I first noticed.

  Happy that you guessed it sorted.

  OE 6 doesn't come with it's own spellcheck. You need to Word or MS Office program, before 2007. The spell checker in Works 4 to 6 will work with OE, but not other editions. If you do not have such a program, you can download a free spell check to one of these sites.

• Outlook Express could not be started. The application was unable to initialize the store directory. Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full. Error code: 0 x 80007114

  Operating system Windows XP, at startup, I get the message: "Outlook Express could not be started. The application was unable to initialize the store directory. Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full"and displays the error code: 0 x 80007114.  (I have a new drive hard with enough space) Outlook Express always open well and functioning normally.  The message mentions and how to fix the problem?  Thank you, Rick

  Jump here (nothing Bruce suggested is false), I did a search and found this old article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/245419), which indicates that there is a bad entry under the identity key in the registry (see www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx for background).  So if it's a big problem, you can do the steps suggested in this article and that will fix it.  Or if you have just one account, then backup your settings and the identity key and then delete the identity key and then start OE and it will establish a new, and you can then set up your account again, and then import the messages from the older directory.  But it does not indicate the major corruption, so you can just ignore it.

• five out of six times (approximately) to start outlook express 6, it crashes while trying to access the first message

  five out of six times (approximately) to start outlook express 6, it crashes while trying to access the first message. This happens several times, and each time the first message (even) appears in the Inbox, even if the process is not complete. sometimes clear the cache, or cleaning IE temp. the files seems to help - but not always.

  It's VERY frustrating!

• Outlook Express keeps coming out of the emails in the Outbox even after sending e-mails to friends.

  Outlook Express keeps coming out of the emails in the Outbox even after sending emails to friendsthen continues to send emails over and over again.

  This occurs even after the email was deleated from Outbox. So that the people that I send to obtain email 20 - 30 times instead of only once.

  Can someone help me solve this problem? I have Microsoft XP Professional on my computer.  Thank you.

  A common cause of this is to have your program configured antivirus to analyze the messages, including outgoing mail.  If you can completely uninstall the AV program, and then reinstall it without the analysis feature mail.  If you can't do that, turn off scanning messages.  You will be just as safe.

• Outlook express is the "timing" out on my emails may not increase after 5 minutes

  When I get emails on outlook express I get a time-out before you finish download, and whenever I turn it on it the same thing happens. I have an email with a large attachment. I increased the time to receive the maximum of 5 minutes, but it will not download.

  You can access your email through your email provider's website?  This way you could delete it.  You can also set up a message rule that if a message exceeds a certain size (and which has a large number), and then delete it from the server.  But then, you won't know who it was, so what matters.  You can also telnet to the server and delete (see http://techhelp.santovec.us/pop3telnet.htm).
