When you use Outlook Express from home I can send and receive emails, but when I'm away from my connection at home I can only receive emails.

Problems using Outlook Express offline at home

I get an error message when I try to send e-mails, would it be possible to send and receive e-mails via Outlook Express from another connection. I hope someone can help, thank you.

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).

    When you send an e-mail using Outlook Express, I immediately get this message; "Some errors occurred while processing the requested tasks. Please see the list of errors below for more details".

    You have apparent dbx file corruption. A common problem.
     
    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.

    Bruce:

    The problem has been fixed (I think) but in a most unusual way. Let me explain.

    When I was closing down to give the computer a rest yesterday, there was a pop up saying that vprotector expected to close. He really wanted the process of closing until I clicked on finish the process. Curious to know what vprotector is, I searched on the net and got a lot of shots, saying: it is a virus and should be deleted pronto. So I searched the hard drive for the vprot. * and found in the folder program files for AVG!

    I then went to AVG to see if it's really a part of AVG and they said yes. If there is a problem with vprot, the toolbar is at fault and needs to be reinstalled. There was one click here to download and run the part of the program to fix the problem. However, I had WebRoot antivirus running that stopped the download of this program as a virus. Because I trust AVG, I've disabled WebRoot and reinstalled the AVG search bar.

    I haven't restarted WebRoot and computer flying along as it should, and OE is the link to IE when I click on a link as it has always done.

    Seems to me to be the faulty AVG toolbar and a cross with two virus programs upward was at fault. Thank you for your time. Your reply gave me a chance to think differently this problem could arise.

    Computers are really complicated machines and we have to be complicated to deal with their problems.

    Thanks again,

  • Adding electronic signature from a file by using outlook express 6

    I use Outlook Express 6 for my emails and I'm trying to set up a signature to email when I send emails. I have no problem that when inserting in the text to help: Tools > Options > Signature > and selecting text in the section change Signature, and then by typing the text in French - it works very well.

    The problem is, I want to add a signature to a file that has color, different fonts and a logo. I tried to do to help to change Signature, and then click Add files, and then browse to select the file. He refuses to use the file for the signature to e-mail. I tried to save the file as a rich text, web page, pdf, and Word but still get the following message - WARNING: the signature file is not a valid text file. I even tried to copy / paste - still nothing. I'm out of ideas. Please can someone help?

    If you can not manually insert it into a new message, you can't have a sig out of it.

    Note: The HTML Signatures must be less than 4 KB.

    Open a new Message window and create your signature. (Insert the graphic & text). Click on the Source tab (view |) Source Edit if not already checked). Highlight the complete source code and copy / paste into Notepad. File | Save under and in the file name field, save as htm, (i.e. Sig1.htm). It will be saved in My Documents by default.

  • I use OUtlook Express for e-mail. Night that suddenly disappeared from the value of a full year of emails - for example from October 2011 to the today October 2012. How can I get back them?

    I have been using Outlook Express 6 for more than 20 years without a single problem so far. Value of a full year of emails has disappeared all of a sudden my box but all e-mail messages seem to be always in place of my sent folder.

    How can I recover these e-mails Inbox?

    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:
    http://www.insideoe.com/problems/bugs.htm#mailgone
     
    Recovery methods:
     
    If you are running XP/SP3, 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.

    Hi, Im using Outlook Express and from time to time, box "leave a copy of messages on the server" becomes disabled automatically.

    Ive checked the Task Manager, its not running after close Outlook.

    Appreciate your comments.

    This can be dependent on ISP or it could just be OE spoil.  I saw this happen at any time.  You can try to backup the message store, and then delete the mail account completely (you will not lose messages).  The file to run. Folder | All compact.  Then close and reopen OE and then add the account back again.  See if things stick after that.

  • I use outlook express 6 and I can receive an email of great but when I try to send it after making the necessary changes, i.e. the signature I get the message 'too big for the server.

    I use outlook express 6 and I can receive an email of great but when I try to send it after making the necessary changes, i.e. the signature I get the message "too big for the server" responses I've seen so far tell me absolutely nothing

    Well, the error message says it all.  "" too big for server".

    There is a limit imposed by your ISP/mail server, which you don't mention.

    Not only the servers have limits on the size, this is not necessarily the same for incoming and outgoing messages.

    If you say you use the e-mail program and the name of your e-mail server, maybe we can shed light on the more specific issue, but the problem is definitely with them and not Outlook Express.

    P.S. I'm not sure what you mean by 'signature'
