removal of some email problems.

I have outlook express 6.

I recently 1300 messages deleted from the folder of additional e-mail. Since then, I can delete some but not all of the emails I wan't to delete. I was told that I have a damaged deleted items folder. How can I fix this problem?

Thanks for any help you can provide, Rick

Do us and clean up others.

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, 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.

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.

Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

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.

Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

    Hello

    If I understand your problem, I think it may have to do with the addresses stored in your address book. Thunderbird can display the name of your address book instead of the name of the post office, where corresponds to the e-mail address.

    Check your address books to see if you have a bad entry for mail addresses get listed wrong.

    Also check under Tools-> Options-> advanced-> reading & display if you have checked the option to see show it only the names of the people in my address book. If you uncheck this option, the name and the address must be...

    some emails will not print. I unplugged the printer - still does not print. also, these emails do not fit into the page - have to landscape.

    Assuming that you have installed the full function of the printer software, it is probably not the printer to blame.

    The browser you use to view the emails aren't always the settings you need (for example, Page Setup to adjust the size / width Fit).

    The browser or program may be missing parameters in order to translate something that the printer can understand the content.  Strange fonts or images in the content is a possible cause of printing email problems.

  • Some emails go directly to the box deleted instead of the Inbox

    I have Internet Explorer 8.  After several years of use, some emails go directly to my Inbox deleted instead of my Inbox.  Why and how do those little emailst o comes in my Inbox?

    Hooray!  I went back and went through my list of blocked senders a couple of times and there were the addresses.  Thanks for the prompt in this way.  I don't understand why they went to my folder deleted items instead of do not come through at all.  This means that all the time I spend blocking spam emails and then don't get no more from this sender is really an illusion... I think that I get no more because I'm doing this, but in reality these people are not sending more?

    Publishers diverts only message to the deleted items. Most of the time is a waste of time IMO.  Keeping in mind that spammers constantly change the address they send supposedly of, the only way to block a message of never gives to your computer is a message rule "delete server" .

    display images in windows mail

    Until recently, the option 'Show images' appeared at the top of some emails. My only option now is to show the e-mail on a web page. I would like to recover the original option.

    The problem is that IE9 has been installed by Windows Update and its not not watch 'bar info'.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#15 for workarounds.

    The about Microsoft Outlook delete button removes more my email?

    Is it to Outlook or Outlook Express?  If his Outlook Express, then your deleted items folder is probably corrupt.  Move all the messages that you want to keep out of the deleted items folder and then close OE and delete the file deleted items.dbx (hidden).  When you reopen OE, it will create a new one that is not corrupted.
