View 1 RepliesI just got a new computer with WinXPHome. All works OK except I can not receive my email into OE 6, all email stays with AT&T's Webmail, which I do not want to use. My old Win98 computer has no problems with getting my email. The settings on both computers are the same. I have disabled NAV email scanning. I have no idea what to do. I like OE, and want to continue using it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedOne of the most important things to create backup copies of, is your email messages. Here's a short guide on how to do this if you use the Outlook Express mail client. Copy the following folder: C:Documents and SettingsusernameLocal SettingsApplication DataIdentities{long sequence of numbers and letters}MicrosoftOutlook Express to a backup location (blank CD, Zip disk, backup HD, etc.). To import the email back into OE: 1) Open Outlook Express 2) Click File - Import - Messages 3) Highlight Microsoft Outlook Express 6, and click Next 4) Choose Import mail from an OE6 store directory, and click OK 5) Browse to the location (folder) where you backed up your email and click OK. That's it. You've now imported all your old emails. This is especially useful for clean installs of your operating system, or moving emails to a different machine.

I have adaware, spybot and avg all on my system updated and have ran scans--nothing found. I have tried to delete the email in front and behind it while all three are selected and it locks up oe. I have booted into safe mode to delete it--locks up oe. As soon as you click on the email it locks it up--will not even open it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI use Outlook Express for e mail. Every now & then when I check e mail I get a message telling me that Outlook Express is not my e mail default, and do I want to make it my default. I check the box to do that, and its ok for awhile, maybe 2 weeks, then it does it again. Apparently something in the system keeps switching it. This has been happening intermittently since I bought my present computer about a year ago.

View 5 Replies View RelatedAbout a month ago my husband was having trouble sending emails. I would sometimes, but it would eventually work for me, but still not for him. He told me he had heard about the email antivirus scanners and somehow they block outgoing mail. So I reinstalled our Grisoft AVG antivirus without the email scanner. Now we can not send any attachments at all. Pictures, documents, nothing. I since reinstalled the email scanner since when trying to send I would get the message that a virus was attached. It still happens. It kicks it back along with about 50 messages telling why. Looks something like this..........

I would like to be able to copy and paste all of my "spam rules" from my computer onto the system of other family members using a USB storage device. This would end up saving considerable time by avoiding the input of over 150 words (this amount is always growing), one at a time, into each computers OE mail modification security feature. I've look in the WINOWS folder and can't find where the OE files are all kept, and specifically, the spam rules. I've been to the OE folder before but can't remember for the life of me what the address is.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have had a slightly annoying problem with Outlook Express which I use as my default mail client. Everything seems to work fine apart from when I try to open PDF files directly from OE, it tries to open them with notepad, which obviously doesn't work. I can save them anywhere else on my computer, my documents for example, and opening them from there works fine. I have the latest Adobe Reader. I can't find anyway to tell OE to open these attachments using Adobe Reader.
