Outlook Express 6.0 Audio Script
Folks:
I am using Microsoft Outlook Express 6 as my email client software.
I would like to get access to a script that would alarm.(play an audio file)
when email is received from a specific address.
maybe such a script already exists.
Thanks,

Some mail opens a blank page
Have XP Home Professional Office. Most email is received fine, but some have
started to open as a blank page. The only thing on the page is the PC Tools
virus check confirmation.
No virus found in this incoming message
Checked by PC Tools AntiVirus (4.0.0.25 - 10.065.009).
http://www.pctools.com/free-antivirus/
If there is an attachment, same result. Double clicking on attachment
(under subject) opens NotePad with the PC Tools virus check confirmation.
I used Norton Antivirus fine, but it expired in Feb and I installed CA
Security for protection as it came free with Road Runner (Time/Warner)
broadband connection that I have used for years. I also added PC Tools 1.5
and Spybot. I've uninstalled the last two programs, but nothing changed.
The cookies under IE Explorer are set low as always.
I don't get any error or blocking messages, just an empty white page with
the PC Tools message at the bottom. The email that comes through fine has
the same PC Tools message. Soome could be a friend that messed up on sending
mail, but the CNET newsletters are hit and miss.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

search for email
when I try searching OE for email using the internal "Find" feature ..it
does not return all of the emails I require. I have checked "include
subfolders" but it seems to miss emails unless I search each folder
separately.

Outlook Express 6, Compaction Errors
I did all that was idicated and advised in post but still have OE Folders
as .bak files, all
remaining in my Recycle Bin. Although opening new folders where necessary
in OE, no emails appear in the new folders when opening OE.
I did notice a discrepancy in the Store Folder name:
a. In OE>Tools>Options>Maint it shows the location of the store as
380493AA-D26E-4F11-968F6EA19CD3F4F5
But in the Windows Explorer directory the Store Folder is shown as:
b. C:\Docs & Settings\David\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\
as {380493AA-D26E-4F11-968F-6EA19CD3F4F5}
i.e. after the 968F there is a "-" in Para b. Which one is correct?
Should I change anything? The file listed in Par a. cannot be found after
Search in My Computer!
I noticed in an earlier thread, Ron Sommer mentioned "that a new Identity is
needed" ? Is it possible to search for and delete all previous identities,
open a new identity and move the .bak folders from the Recycle Bin into OE?
This would surely clean the system out and start from scratch?
I have Outlook installed but do not use it as there are more bells and
whistles than I need, but is it less prone to compacting errors.
Thanks, brett.

OE 6.0: Why it collapses personal folders on startup?
Okay, I am desperate here. I have been searching for a very long time. This
forum seems to be official from Microsoft. I hope you will help me.
I am using Outlook Express 6.0, and I have personal folders as children of
Inbox folder, if you know what I mean (you press "+" on the left and they
expand). OE drives me crazy by collapsing my personal folders on startup. So
when I close the program with folders expanded, the next time I start it,
they will be collapsed, and I have to expand them again and again.
Is there any way to tell OE to leave my folders expanded? May be some
registry tweaks?
Thank you VERY much. Tag: egregia agenzia Tag: 359154
Fonts in OE6 query
My cousin has a PC running XP HE SP2, and OE6.
She installed some new TrueType fonts into the 'Fonts' folder, as she wanted
to be able to compose emails using these - these worked fine, appearing in
the drop down list in OE, until she ran 'disk clean up' on the PC. The fonts
she previously installed have since disappeared from the drop down bar and
will now not`reinstall into the Fonts folder.
Is there a way of fixing it this? Why would disk clean up remove them
anyway?
Thanks for any help regarding this.

I performed a 'Find' on the inbox searching for a key word in the message.
OE6 came back with an error message saying, "Outlook Express encountered an
unexpected problem while displaying this message. Check your computer for
low memory or low disk space and try again".
Then I looked at the inbox, searching for the same message under the
date/time and same folder that the Find message had reported and there was
NO email message from that person there!!
I'm running XP Pro, OE6, dual core Intel processor and have about 2 GB
memory.
What's going on?

need help changing Store Folder to network share
I have WinME running in Virtual PC on an XP machine. I'd like to have both
instances of OE share a single Message Store Folder. From what I gather, the
only connection between Guest and Host OS is though a network share. For
example, if I want to copy or move files from WinME to XP, I just drag them
to the appropriate XP folder via network share.
If someone has experience with setting up a common OE Store Folder over a
network, I'd appreciate your help because it's not working as expected.
Here's what I did:
I created a network share for the XP/OE Store Folder and then changed the
WinME Store Folder to point to it. Although the WinME OE seems happy with the
network Store Folder, my existing messages and folders don't show up. With
all OE's quirks, this didn't surprise me and I figure there's probably a
simple fix.
To troubleshoot, I created a new folder "test" in the WinME OE and put a
message in the folder. For reasons I can't fathom, text.dbx doesn't show up
in the XP Store Folder. I searched both drives for test.dbx and it doesn't
seem to exist anywhere!! Explorer Search is set to find hidden files, and I
even un-hid the folders just to make sure.
Further testing showed I can assign the Store Folder to a location on the
virtual machine and all the .dbx files are visible in the new location
including text.dbx. But when I change the Store Folder back to the XP Store
Folder via network share, test.dbx remains invisible.
I know a common Store Folder can be implemented in a dual-boot scenario, but
in that case, a network share is not required. So I'm not sure if my problem
is related to using a network share, or somehow related to how virtual
machines work.
Can anyone explain this behavior, or otherwise tell me how to use a common
Store Folder for both machines?
Thanks

OE6 cannot import WAB or messages
OS- WINXP PRO sp2, Outlook Express 6, Fresh reinstall, Cannot import
messages or caddress book.
Do to serious problems with system I had to reinstall windows. I have it
configured in a multi drive configuration with the Operating System (WinXP
Pro) on drive C, the Programs on drive D, the Data on drive E, so the
Documents and settings folder etc is on E. This is the same configuration as
prior to the reinstall. I ghosted everything over to another storage drive
prior to the reinstall so I have everything backeup pretty well.
Problem:
I cannot seem to get outlook Express 6 to import the emails or the address
book from the old setup. It says it completes importing the "messages" fine
but there is nothing in the mail folders afterward. As to the WAB it shows
an error whenever I try to import it.
I have tried many different ways to do this. Could it be a problem with
identities? I do not know exactly what the old identity could have been. Tag: egregia agenzia Tag: 359065

Address display for senders
I'm new to OE6, finally converting from NetScape 7.1 and Messenger. Long
since gave up on their browser. How do I get OE6 to display full address
(name & domain) of sender for email when I'm browsing through inbox, or
folers of subsequently saved emails? I could always see full address in
NetScape and appreciated that fact.
Appears to me that OE must flip a coin trying to decide which way to display

Idea for backup (and removing attachments)
Hi
I need a backup system for outlook express files. The point is, that
there are some 6-700 MB of .dbx files (they store everything!).
I can copy the files to CD once a month, but there must be a better
way of doing it.
As of now, there are 3 computers, so I guess I have some ~2 GB.
I know that I can remove attachments - this will help, as there are
things there, which can be removed. I usually do this by hand (with
EML files), but - editing an entire account / dbx file is a bit
harder. I do not know the format of dbx.... if I can remove a lot,
that backup is eaier.

Address Book - maybe an old question
Plan to do a complete RESTORE of my laptop. Would like to save the address
book. Thought it was a .wab file - search found nothing. Where does MS
store the address book -or- what is its tag?
BTW, did a comp RESTORE on a desktop - was well worth the effort. However,
thought the address book went along with the INBOX and like stuff. Not so.
Thus lost all contacts on that machine. (Inbox, etc files kept on another

OE cannot read dbx files
Outlook Express stores dbx files in the following folder:
Documents and settings\my name\Local Settings\Application
Data\Identities\{F......long alph numeric}\microsoft\Outlook Expess
I recenstly restored Windows 2000 Pro, I used WINNT2 instead of WINNT for
the new install. Now Outlook Express cannot read the saved messages reported
in the dbx file shown in Outlook Express above, they were not lost since Idid
an over write instead of format. How do I tell the system now to read those
dbx files, they represent ome 40 folders of saved emil messages. Tag: egregia agenzia Tag: 359022
Spam and junk messages
Just wondering...
Why does this particular group get so many junk messages?
I "hang out" in the Excel groups and we rarely get any junk, and when we do,
MS (someone?) removes it.
