    - Sending email in Outlook Express I use XP Home and Outlook Express 6. Was with freeserve and segued thru to Orange. Recently problems started with email and I was advised to change my serveres from freeserve to orangehome. However, since then, outgoing mail has been a problem, only working occasionally. Incoming is fine all the time. I read in a discussion forum that changing the port number in advanced properties might help, but I do not know what to. Orange are not much help - they just tell me to re-install OE. Can anyone advise, please? -- Martyn Tag: OE Tag: 360838

    - Can anyone use my domain name to send outgoing emails? For example, enquiry@abc.com, @abc.com is my domain name, receiving email uses POP3, and sending email uses SMTP, can any unknown sender send any out-going email under John@abc.com without getting any authority from the source abc.com? If they can successfully send out email, do they access my SMTP illegally? Thanks in advance for any suggestions Eric Tag: OE Tag: 360834

    - error 0x80004005 I have stopped receiving mail into my Outlook Express 6. I spoke with AT&T and updated all of my settings and that is not the problem. As soon as I open outlook express the error message pops up and says: Protocol:POP3, Port:995, Secure (SSL): Yes, error 0x80004005. I found another site that suggested I search for files that said Inbox.mbx or Inbox.dbx and then to rename it as Inbox.old. I did have one that was .dbx and I changed it, closed and reopened express and the same message appeared. I also turned off e-mail scanning and that did not work as well. Can anyone please help me????? thank you. Tag: OE Tag: 360801

    - Sent Items folder - messages have gone! Hi I have a problem with my Sent Items folder. We had a power failure on Friday 2 May 2008 and ever since all messages in my Sent Items folder are no longer appearing in OE. The folder has completely emptied out. I have checked the store folder and can still see the original Sent Items.dbx file there. Now when I right click on Sent Items in my OE and view Properties, it says the files are stored in the following file: Sent Items (2).dbx This new Sent Items (2).dbx folder appears in my store folder and seems to be saving all my sent messages. I would like to view my original Sent Item's folder in OE and have all sent messages stored in there like normal. Thanks for your help. Tag: OE Tag: 360784

    - Make OE the default mail handler When I start OE6 it asks if I want to make it the default mail handler. I always click Yes. Then, if I click Tools\Options\General, the bottom panel says "This application is not the default mail handler". I then click "Make default." However, when I exit Tools and then go back into Tools, OE6 is still not the default mail handler. If I restart OE6 it again asks if I want to make it the default mail handler. Any suggestions on how to make these changes stick? Win XP Pro SP2 Thanks, Don Culp Tag: OE Tag: 360774

    - Outlook Express starts at press of Start+E Greetings, When I depress the Start (Flag/MS-Logo) Key and E simultaneously, expecting Windows Explorer to run, Outlook Express opens. Where & How is this shortcut/hotkey controlled? I want Start+E to open Windows Explorer (and Start+R to open the Command Line). Start+D works as promised to minimize (or restore) all 'desktop present' applications. These are the three Start-Key shortcuts that I use. I have not tested others.

    - 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, Big Al Mintaka Tag: OE Tag: 360750

    - 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!

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 Roy Tag: OE Tag: 360722

    - 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: OE Tag: 360718

    - 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: OE 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: OE 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: OE Tag: 360671

    - 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, Jono C. Tag: OE Tag: 360642
