  Original title: Repetitivet sending emails from Outlook Express

  When sending emails from my Outlook Express , the following occurs:

  (1) as usual, send the message falls into my Outbox and begins to be sent.

  (2) when the message was sent, I get a message that "some errors occurred while processing requested tasks" but no actual errors are displayed.

  (3) the sent items folder does not show that a message has been sent... but a message has been sent.

  (4) the original message remains in my Outbox and will be sent over and over again.

  As you can imagine, it's a very embarrassing problem.  All suggestions are welcome, but please keep the instructions clear and simple.

  Hello

  Windows XP Service Pack 2 is installed on your computer? To work on this question, see these steps.

  It seems that there is a corruption of dbx file.

  I suggest you go over your messages out of the Inbox, and then create new folders Outbox and sent items after you move the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.

  Reference:

  (a) click onTools

  (b) thenOptions

  (c) selectMaintenance

  (d) Record Store will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files.

  (e) Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste to start and select 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

  Reference:

  (a) clickStart

  (b) Control Panel

  (c) Folder Options icon

  (d) notice, or in Windows Explorer

  (e) Tools

  (f) the Folder Options

  ( viewof g).

  With Outlook Express 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 Outlook Express.

  After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

  Reference:

  (a) clickOutlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open.

  (b) click onthe file

  (c) work offline (or double click working online in the status bar).

  (d) file

  (e) file

  (f) compact all folders. Wait for the compaction to complete.

  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 about a300 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

  Compact often as specified above.

  Reference:

  (a) in the Tools

  (b) selectOptions

  (c) maintenance:

  (d) uncheck Compact messages in the background and leave it unchecked. (N/a if running XP/SP2).

  And backup often.

  I want to download Windows Mail as it is a more updated from Outlook Express version, my computer has Outlook Express preinstalled on it when I bought it but I have never used, it would be better to uninstall Outlook Express before you install Windows Mail or do I need to keep Outlook Express on my computer where Windows Mail needs to use some of the files I don't want these two e-mail on my computer programs as they would take so much space on my computer.

• Import e-mail messages from Outlook Express in Windows Live Mail?

  I have recently moved to a new PC with Win7 and have been using Live Mail - more often with success, I thought with the exception of one or two faults, but I'll probably post a question on those.
  On the audit of my old PC today, when I open Oulook Express have been downloaded more than 100 emails that have not appeared in Live Mail - dating back to the time I went.
  I tried to export these messages of OE, put it on a USB key and then import in LM LM do not seem to recognize them - these are the dbx files. Suggestions anyone please?
  Thank you in advance.
  Jeff.

  If both computers use the same e-mail address, you must do this to get the messages on both.
   
  On both machines: tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - Check: leave a copy of messages on the server.
   
  On a single computer only, make sure to delete messages after X days to satisfy your allocated space that you get from your server.
