Merging message folders with duplicate names
Hi Everyone,
I've just returned to using Outlook Express 6 after using Thunderbird for
about a year. In that time I accumulated a large number of new messages in
Thunderbird and used the same folder structure I had in OE6.
Eventually I managed to get all of my Thunderbird message folders into an
Outlook Express folder named "Thunderbird Import".
(BTW I did this by exporting from Thunderbird to Outlook, then from Outlook
to Outlook Express)
What I'd like to do now is re-merge the subfolders in the ThunderBird Import
folder back into my personal folder store in Outlook Express.
However I can't figure how to do this without winding up with duplicate
subfolders having names appended by "(1)", "(2)", etc. i.e. instead of
merging a subfolder named "SW Receipts", I get "SW Receipts" and "SW Receipts
(1)".
If I did this to file folders in Windows Explorer, the folders would be
merged into one folder with the same name, and duplicate contents would be
overwritten while new ones would be added.
Is there any way to do this in Outlook Express, either in OE itself or using
a 3rd party utility?
Thanks to all who take the time to read this,

OE 6.0 do not send emails even the emails are moved to sent folder
Please help, i don't know what's happening to Microsoft Outlook Express. I
have confirmed to my internet provider that the connection is working well,
they told me that the problem is probably with the Outlook Express. When I
send an email, it seems that everything's ok because the email sent was moved
to sent folders. However, when I check with the receipient if whether they
receive my emails, it was not received. I have tried it many times but the
problem is still there. How come my email was moved to sent folder when it
was not really sent anyway? Would appreciate your help. Thank you so much
and God bless! Tag: RU Tag: 360747
Vanishing dial up connection tone
Hello group,
My mom complained about that when he connected to the internet by dial
up connection the typical tone was gone; although the internet is
properly connected by the same means. SHe checked the PC sound system
and its still run normally.
I would like to know how did the dial up connection tone vanish? Does
it have to do with the ISP provider changing or making the connection
silent or its the fault of the PC?
TIA

Sito d?arte di Angelo Uva pittore www.arteangelouva.it
Il sito d?arte del pittore Angelo Uva www.arteangelouva.it pone in evidenza
che oggi l'artista percepisce sempre più che l'arte creativa è una potenza
che serve non solo a sviluppare e ad affinare l'anima umana, ma anche che è
un linguaggio che parla all'anima di cose che diventano il suo pane
quotidiano; sa che l'arte non può rimanere a lungo senza svolgere questa
funzione; altrimenti resterebbe un vuoto incolmabile. Nei tempi in cui
l'anima umana conduce una vita più forte e intensa, anche l'arte si fa più
viva, perché vita e arte, stanno in rapporto di reciproca influenza.
Inoltre, l'artista riconosce la sua funzione verso l'arte, e la necessità di
soddisfare finalità più elevate. Sa che deve educarsi e sprofondare nella
propria anima, in modo che il suo talento esteriore possa manifestarsi ed
estrinsecarsi in pieno, e senza alcun limite; suo compito non è di dominare
la forma, bensì di adattare la forma al contenuto. L'artista, il vero
artefice, non si perde mai d'animo, non si scoraggia mai, perché sa di
trovare sempre qualcosa da dire, anche quando non sa cosa dire; attende ad
un lavoro che lo impegna completamente fino a farlo soffrire, e che diventa
spesso la sua croce. Egli sa che ciascuno dei suoi atti, dei propri
sentimenti e dei relativi pensieri, costituiscono il mezzo sottile e
imponderabile, di cui sono formate le sue opere, e che perciò non è libero
nella vita, ma solamente nell'arte.
L'artista mira a ricercare il bello; ed è bello ciò che è interiormente
splendido, e scaturisce da interiore necessità psichica. Per questa via,
entriamo nell'era della composizione cosciente e razionale, e della
creazione spirituale. Tag: RU Tag: 360718
Outlook Express Backup
I have been trying to backup Outlook Express email and when I try to open the
folder, everything is garbled, numbers or letters, and looks nothing like the
original emails. I am using WordPad to open the email backup folder and I
am not sure if this is the correct program. Can someone tell me what I am
doing wrong and tell me a better way to back up the emails?
Thanks for your help!!!

Cannot Save E-Mail Account Password in Outlook Express 5
I have a senior citizen friend in another town that has this problem.
I found the web-site http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290684. He does
not have Outlook, so I attempted to use the procedure under "Create a
new Outlook Express identity", but when I got to the Accounts window
in Outlook Express, the previous accounts did not appear.
This scared me, so I abandoned the effort. If this procedure is
completed, will it knock out the previous e-mail account? Tag: RU Tag: 360690
Multiple send of emails
Some times my OE fails to move the sent email from the Out folder to the Sent
folder. I know my accounts are set properly because this is a sporadic
condition that comes and goes without changing my outgoing servers. When the
email does not transfer to the sent folder it remains in the out folder and
then is sent multiple times to the receipients. This condition even persists
when I close and restart OE as well as reboot my computer. I think I have
eliminated malware based on daily scans with AVG and Webroot for viruses and
spyware and none has been found.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Tag: RU Tag: 360688
Unable to forward or send attachments in OE6
I have XP pro. Now when I forward pictures or send pictures or any
type of attachment like a pdf file the recipient doesn't get the
attachments. It says attachment but there isn't any file extension.
Or sometimes they don't get the email at all. I have contacted my ISP
and they say it is a OE problem. I think all of my options are
correct. Set up for HTML and blocking file attachments unchecked. I
use AVG virus protection but without the email scanner. Tag: RU Tag: 360671
New Mail Announcement

Disappearing menu bar
On my friend's computer, in OE, the menu bar has vanished. I mean the File,
Edit, Tools, Message, Help menu bar, not the Tools bar or similar.
There doesn't seem to be an option for this, and pressing ALT doesn't seem
to make any menu options appear.
My friend is not particularly computer savvy and I'm not able to go to his
house to fiddle or reinstall OE. Is there a relatively painless way to fix
this?
I'm positive he's had this problem before, and it was solved, but I can't
for the life of me think how we did it.
Many thanks in advance,

Common OE account and identity for different users
Is there a way that OE can be configured such that one identity is usable by
different logged-in users on a Windows XP Pro SP2 machine?
OE is used only for the UseNet. The users have different roles but the
UseNet identity relates to the company so any of the users need to be able
to read/post messages.
IOW, can one OE profile be accessible to any user logging in on one machine?
Regards and thanks in anticipation.

Need help with possible message rule, please
Hi --
I have a couple of different servers that I can send Outlook Express mail
through (gmail, yahoo, regular ISP, etc.) and I know that I can just click
on the down arrow and select the one that I want to use. The problem is
that I sometimes forget to do that.
I do work from home for one particular person and one would like for all
messages to him to be sent through his domain mail server.
Is there any way to make a rule that says something like "When the message
is to John Doe, send it through "xxx.com?"
Web mail via the domain server email account is not an option in this
instance because the files that we exchange exceed the allowable size.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Illegible Characters In Messages
Hi, using Windows XP(Home)SP2, IE7, OE6, Everything up to date. Below is an
excerpt from a message in this Windowsxp.general Newsgroup. You will notice
the illegible characters in the 3rd line. I get that in many of the messages
that are displayed from the microsoft.public newsgroups. Sometimes there
are many other words scrambled in this manner, in a message. Although its
happening in OE I could not tell if it would be an XP or OE problem. Does
anyone have any idea what could be causing the problem?
Thanks for any help.
