Outlook express sends the same message over & over again
Outlook said "year error has occurred & message could not be sent", BUT it sends the email on & on again until I close the program.
What is the problem and how to fix it?
Thank you
TERI
Hello
can you write here, how large are the files of Outlook Express data? (specifically Sent Items.dbx )
These files has the limit of 2 GB and are stored:
C:\Documents and Settings\#USERNAME#Settings\Application Data\Identities\ {unique hexadecimal string} \Microsoft\Outlook Express
where #USERNAME # is your username.
Here is some information on the DBX files:
http://www.ABF-soft.com/dbx-file.shtml
If the file 'Envoyes.dbx' has size 2 GB, that Outlook Express can not move e-mail sent in this file and, therefore, the email are always send over and over again...

It just started doing this morning... I had Outlook Express for YEARS!
You have apparent dbx file corruption.
Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new folders to send and sent items box after having moved the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.
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 DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them. New ones will be created automatically when you open OE.
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.
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.
Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095Disable 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://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htmNote that for some AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the program and reinstall in custom Mode and uncheck analysis when the option is the result of e-mail messages.
Compact often as specified above.
And backup often.

In Outlook Express, how can I send the same message to the large group (already in the address book), but have to each recipient can only see his name (not the Group)?
To use the functionality of the BCC (Blind Carbon Copy), in a new message window, click View | All headers and type the addresses separated by a; Or: Click the button to. You will see your list of contacts and the choice to put them in the To, CC, or BCC field. Click on an address, and then click BCC to add it. Repeat for all of the contacts you want. (Note: most of the providers have limits as to how many messages you can send both a. 25 is common, but it varies).
Put your own address in the box to. That's the only name/address that any recipient will see. If you leave the field empty, some people may not receive e-mail because of message rules they put in place, or restrictions imposed by their ISP.
You can also make an entry in the address book using your e-mail address, but put something like the mailing list in the area of the display.
*********************
You can also create groups if you send e-mail to the same people often.
To create a group of contacts:
You can create a single group name (or alias) to use when sending a message to several contacts at the same time. Just create a group name and add individual contacts to the group. Then just type the name of the group in the box for when you send mail.
1. in the address book, select the folder in which you want to create a group. Click New in the toolbar, and then click New Group.
2. the Properties dialog box opens. In the group name box, type the name of the group.
3. There are several ways to add people to the Group:
a. to add a person from your address book list, click Select members, and then click a name in the address book list.
(b) to add a person directly to the group without adding the name to your address book, type the person's name and e-mail address at the bottom of the Properties dialog box and then click Add.
to add a person to both the Group and your address book, click New Contact and enter the appropriate information.
(d) to use a directory service, click Select members, and then click search. Select a directory service in the drop-down list at the end of the text box. After finding and selecting an address, it is automatically added to your address book.
4. Repeat for each addition until your group is defined.Note
a. to view a list of your groups separately from the list of address book in the address book on the view menu, make sure that folders and groups is selected.
b. you can create multiple groups, and contacts can belong to several groups.If you want to send to a group without addresses are displayed for each recipient, open the address book and make a new entry. Enter the name of the group in the area of the display, but use your address. (Some Internet service providers require a legitimate address in the line to and recipients will know it's from the Group).
Click on the button to. Enter the name of the group using your address. Enter the group in the BCC field.

When I send an e-mail message, the message is sent, however, it remains in my "Outbox" and does not go to the contrary to my Inbox "sent items". Downstairs, to the left of the Outbox, a message says '0 1 message sent' but the e-mail message is sent. I "fixed" internet explore and "restored" to a policy earlier, but this has not solved the problem. What is the solution? Please notify. Thank you.
I have moved all my messages on my "Sent items" folder and the "trash" to other folders, closed Outlook Express and delete the file Sent Items.dbx and Outbox.dbx file. I reopened Outlook Express, and it does not create new sent items folders and the Outbox.
I created a new identity as the solution. Thanks for the help.

Send a message to multiple recipients, using "bcc." I don't want for the addresses in the "bcc" to show.
CC = carbon copy. BCC = blind carbon copy. You see the addresses when you send the message, but recipients cannot see their own address.
