Windows Mail can suddenly throw up error "Assertion failure"?

On Vista, 32-bit, Windows Mail (which worked perfectly fine) now guard throw up a "Assertion failed!" error when I click on my POP3 Inbox. I can see all the message headers but can't get their reading. Pressing on 'Retry' just quit the program. Nothing has changed on my machine, no new antivirus software is uptodate and no malware found. I have a screenshot of the full error message but can't see how to post here. Help, please! Thank you, Cheryl

Try to compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  Which tends to fix any corruption in the database which can produce strange errors like that.

And pay attention to the antivirus interference that may also contribute to the database.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  • Windows mail message, Windows mail can compact your messages database.

    I use windows mail and when I close windows mail, I me meassage windows mail can compact your message store, what is it?

    I use windows mail and when I close windows mail, I me meassage windows mail can compact your message store, what is it?

    should I go for it, what it means?

    This means that there are more than a certain level of white space in your message store (usually this means that you have removed a number of items).

    Yes go ahead.

    Compacted mail databases are generally safer and more resistant to corruption than the non-compacted.

    Your server suddenly put an end to the connection. The possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.

    Thank you very much

    Norton and Winmail opener do not at all agree.  You need at least to turn off e-mail scanning in Norton and then delete your account, close and reopen WinMail, and then add it back again.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  • Windows Mail - Can't delete emails from any box (Inbox, deleted items, items, etc...).

    In October, my Windows Mail simply stop allowing me to remove anything.  I noticed it first in my Inbox, so I went to my "deleted items" empty to make (thinking that it was question) instead, but found that I could not delete individual emails or use the tool to empty folder.  Windows Mail doesn't allow me to delete ALL emails from ANY folder, so now I need to access my emails on the internet, but it's a pain that my address book is in position.

    I googled solutions and tried a few corrections people recommended when they are unable to remove files from a single folder.  They don't solve anything.  I thought corrupted program so I would update and downloaded Windows Live Mail hoping to fix it, but same problem remains.

    Error message when you try to delete individual reading by e-mail: "Message could not be deleted."  Error message when you exit the program: "certain elements in the"Deleted items"folder cannot be deleted.  An error has occurred. "Nothing specific, but ANY element of ANY folder can be deleted.

  • Windows Mail - can't delete messages

    I've upgraded to WIndows 7 but you need to go back to Vista to save some key files. When I went back to Vista, I found that I can't delete messages from Windows Mail in my Inbox, sent items and my Outbox. My Outbox sends constant messages not deleted (I remved the addresses between no sent items to prevent their shipment amultiple times). Error messasges include:
    * "An unknown error has occurred."
    * "This message could not be deleted.
    * At the start of Windows Mail, this message appears "a few errors have occurred while proecessing tasks. Please see the list of errors below for more details". However, it is not all the details listed.

    I tried to install the update KB941090, but I get a message that it is not applicable to my version of Windows.

    I have Service Pack 1 installed and have tried to install Service Pack 2 for Vista, but it will not be installed.

    My Windows product ID is 89580-OEM-7332132-00182

  • Windows Mail JPG attachments get the error message "cannot find... .jpg file.

    Recently, I try to open JPG files in Windows Mail and get an error message window that says that "Windows cannot find"filename.jpg"make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again" I can save the JPG file, then open it, but Windows Mail won't open it by simply clicking on the attachment JPG.

    There has been reports of this behavior with only some files (.jpg or .pdf) and the reports of this problem with each attachment after installing IE8.  Frankly, they are quite few and inconsistent and avisnon there is no clear solution.  Try these two steps in this order.

    1. Use this utility to 'fix' to reset the Security http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/949220 settings
    2. Use this utility to re - register a lot of IE http://iefaq.info/index.php?action=artikel&cat=35&id=133&artlang=en important .dll

    There are other actions that must be reported to temporarily fix the problem - move to the location of the internet temportary file, for example.  Another reported a little is to uninstall IE8 and then reinstall it with all the temporarily disabled third-party security software.

    Since you have only this problem with .jpg files, you can try to reset file associations for .jpg.  Open an administrator command prompt (right click on cmd in the start menu and choose "Run as Administrator").  In the administration command prompt window, type the following lines exactly as shown:
    Assoc .jpg = jpegfile

    Assoc .jpeg = jpegfile

    ftype jpegfile=%SystemRoot%\System32\rundll32.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Photo Gallery\PhotoViewer.dll", ImageView_Fullscreen %1

  • Windows Mail can receive but not send up to exit application

    Hi and thanks for taking the time to read what I am in need of your help.

    I have a Toshiba P200, Vista Home Premium, Tiscali as my ISP, Norton Internet Security for AV and firewall and access my broadband via Ethernet to a Belkin ADSL router (and occasionally a Siemens router) and I am experiencing some strange events with Windows Mail.

    In short I can receive mail without any problems, but when I send the mail, remaining in the Outbox despite the option send immediately being checked, or by pressing the send/receive button. When I go out Windows Mail mail is sent immediately and is when I restart Windows Mail in the sent messages folder.

    So why I think there is a problem with the laptop. Well, I'm lucky to have a friend who has a non-Toshiba laptop, where all of the above can be replicated. Guess what, Windows Mail sends the message exactly as it should (on my account and on my network, through my router and the ISP, Tiscali etc.), so I conclude that the only difference is that my laptop is a P200.

    I called Tiscali, which confirmed that all my mail settings were OK, POP, SMTP etc, which I expect (because they work on the laptop from my friend), and they advised to contact Microsoft, I did, and since the P200 has pre-installed Vista they say that I need to contact Toshiba, and here I am.
    My P200 has been restored to factory settings, and I tried to get this working without Norton IS and no firewall (Vista and router) but no luck.

    Any ideas would be very appreciated and if I find through other means, I'll post back with the result. If the answer is already out there, please apologize for being too stupid to locate and beg your patience.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    It is typical for support persons. All of them are trying to refer clients and through them. In my opinion Microsoft s reaction is strange to me. They designed the operating system and they should be responsible for the feature.

    I have the Satellite A200 and Satellite P200D and I use Windows Mail on two of them successfully. My laptop is connected to the WIFI router and router directly to the phone line. To be honest, I have configured Windows Mail as you and all of the work are made in a few minutes.

    It is not easy to tell where the problem may be, but I think that there is a problem with some settings of your laptop. Some of them block it somehow. To compare your, with friends laptop is also not the best because it can have completely different OS settings (antivir application, the settings of the firewall).

    Try turning off all the features that can block Windows hotmail to see if there is some difference.

  • Windows Mail - can I consolidate records 'Local Folders' and 'IMAP '?

    I use Windows Vista Home Premium. I had already set up Windows Mail with a local ISP, which went bankrupt. So there are "Local Folders" put in place for this account. I can't use this address, so I now set up Windows Mail with my new provider, via IMAP. Who created a new set of records, so now that I have two folders box, reception, two sent items folders, two project files etc. I tried drag - move, but they will not move. Is it possible I can group these together so that, without losing any content, I have only one Inbox folder, for example?

    DQ J

    Not if you use IMAP.  You can use pop.  IMAP the local client has reproduced what is on the server which is good if you have several devices, but you can create local rules or manage local folders.

    BTW, if you change from IMAP to POP, you need to backup your data (which you should do anyway)

  • Windows Mail - can't find the receiver on my imported "sent items".

    I recently exported all my old articles 'sent' to a backup location and then removed from Windows Mail.  Today I imported them insert it again but the folder imported lists not the recipients, just the sender (me!) - how can I fix?

    Go to view | Columns and activate the different fields in the record.  The recipient will also show if you open the message.  Is it not?

  • Cannot send e-mail messages in Windows Mail. I get the error code: 0x800CCC0E

    original title: cannot send emails in Mail.

    Can receive OK.  Error: 0x800CCC0E.  ISP said it is not their problem.  SSL is not verified.  What can I do else?

    See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 .  Try to remove your email account, compact and repair the database (see www.oehelp.com/WMUTil/), and to add your account mail back again.

  • Vista, IE8, Windows Mail, can not open attachments

    I've been running Vista SP1 with Windows Home Premium and Windows Mail without problems, including handling e-mail attachments.  For safety, I: McAfee Total Protection, Windows Firewall, Zone Alarm and Windows Defender.

    I installed IE8 and liked the convenience features.   It worked well on my machine, but now I can't open e-mail attachments.  Security in Windows Mail by IE8 settings are maintained and are defined to allow attachments.  I uninstalled IE8 and the problem disappeared.  None of my security programs are scoring blocked attachments or otherwise.

    Any suggestions on how to fix this so I can go back to IE8?

    John C in PA

    I just got the phone with McAfee.  It seems that IE8 doesn't is NOT supported by McAfee in its current configuration that they still think IE8 beta.  I was informed that when the consumer final version McAfee support and my attachments e-mail won't be a problem.  Too bad at the moment, I liked IE8.
