Outlook Express - Unable Open Scrambled / Unreadable Mail
Aug 9, 2009
I have Windows xp pro on an IBM Think Center. I can receive, download and print a large file using Outlook Express. If I then try to forward this file, either the recipient gets it but is unable to open it or it is scrambled and unreadible... OR... the recipient never recieves it and then I receive 2 or 3 emails (depending on the size of the file) stating FROM: "mail delivery system" and SUBJECT: "delivery status notification". I AM able to upload or forward small files of say 2 or 3 pages without a problem. I've tried to find some setting that I could change but have be unsuccessful.
I have Windows XP SP2 and Internet Explorer 7.0 in all 3 computers, but this particular computer displays the error message whenever it open Outlook Express.After I click the "OK" button and close the message window, everything works fine.It appears to be associated with Windows Messenger 5.1.0701, which I don't use and don't have running in the background.
I have powerpoint viewer 2003 which will open .pps and .ppt files on my hard-drive, but will not open them as e-mail attachments received in OE6. This is very inconvenient, and I want to remedy the problem. I do not have MS office 2003, but the stand-alone MS powerpoint viewer 2003. I am using WinXP Media Center Edition, version 2002, with SP2 installed.
I recently installed Service Pack 3 for XP, and all seems well. One problem is that I cannot get e-mail through to a friend of mine with outlook express. This is the error he is getting from Panix.This doesn't happen with SP2. Is this a known issue, and is there a fix that doesn't involve removing sp3? I've tried 3 sp3 computers, and they all do the same.
When i have incoming mail it used to advise me in my taskbar and also by a voice message that doesnt happen anymore and I dont recall changing anything
working on a friends computer and cannot get connected to outlook express incoming mail. On the internet in good fashion. My setting are exactly the same as my Computer (except name and password).I have reformatted the C drive to no avail. Have updated all programs from Microsoft.
Is there any way to get back things that were in outlook express? I tried to forward them to my webmail acct and they didn't go for some reason. They were all in my returned mail folder. When I tried to forward that back to web mail it just deleted everything out of my outlook express program and it is in neither place now. I tried doing a system restore just to see if that would work and of course it didn't.
I am having a problem setting up an e-mail account in Outlook Express. I have entered all the correct details from my ISP but receive the following error when attempting to send or receive:-Unable to logon to the server using Secure Password Authentication. Account: 'mail.o2.co.uk', Server: 'mail.o2.co.uk', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC18.
I have Windows XP with all the updates, etc running fine.4GB RAM,dual core, runs just fine. I have several OE accounts on my computer - personal, business and photography business. Can I have Windows Live Mail for ONE account and the rest with OE? I like the way that finding attachments is so much easier with Windows Live Mail than with OE. But I hate that all of the email from all of my OE accounts download all together on Windows Live Mail. If I can't use WLM then I may opt for Outlook on one account.
My problem is.when receiving an attachment with E mail Outlook Express,at times I cannot open it.A message comes up.create an association in Folder Options. Apparently i need to do this to be able to open the attachment.I am using Windows XP system.Can any one help please and tell me what to do.
I am searching for a Software like Outlook with fallowing Features. The Admin Can Configur the Mail ID which the user can send only to that ID through User Login. if have multiple options like option-2 as workgroup and Only one Mail ID to send mail through internet.
I decided to back up my whole Inbox into an external new HD. I found the inbox folder and renamed it to move it to a new folder. But then I discovered in panic that the whole folder had dissapeared from my OutLook Express client and when I tried to import it back to OE there was this warning :the "folder could not be found or was in use by other application". Now this problem is beyond my power and I will indeed appreciate your help to get my inbox folder back to OutLook Express, before I do something else wrong. I know where the folders are but I guess I have a problem with the renaming that I am unable to solve.
I am running Windows XP Home.I recently installed MS Outlook and now it has become my default mail program. When I click on a link in a website to send mail Outlook opens instead of my web based email server. I was told that the adjustment has to be made in the registry and I have no clue as to how to to that.
I store *.EML files in various folders around my computer, and I use Outlook Exress File/Save As feature, to do this. Each time I open these files from within these folders, Windows Live Mail takes control. I have been trying to change the File Association, but I cannot find Outlook Express, listed anywhere.
You can easily create an icon on your desktop that allows you to compose and sand a mail by double clicking on it without opening Outlook Express.1- Find a free space on your desktop and right click on it on New -> Shortcut2- Enter in the space 'mailto:' (w/out quotes)3- Press 'Next' button.4- Enter in the space a name for the icon (i use 'mail')5- Click 'finish'.That's it.
When I try to send or receive mail in Outlook Express 6, I get an error message 0x800CCC0D along with socket error 11004. It's telling me the host cannot be found, to check that the server name is entered correctly. This began immediately after I clicked the stop button while I was downloading mail and then clicked on send/receive a minute later. My connection to the internet is fine. I checked all the vital information, POP3, SMTP, my password, everything. I removed all the information from my account and reinstalled it, still the same error!
I have decided to go with Windows Live Mail, so do not need Outlook Express any more. Question: Can Outlook Express be uninstalled or do I just leave it where it is in All Programs. I know it is interrogated software with Windows XPSP2, so I guess I just leave it be. I had a glitch in the signature area of Outlook Express and when I installed Windows Live Mail, the glitch came over with the importing of everything from Outlook Express....darn it. To describe the glitch.....when I go to attach a signature saved in Windows Live Mail a message appears on the desktop saying WLM has to close as there is a problem with the software. The main reason I decided to install Windows Live Mail was to rid myself of this particular glitch in Outlook Express, but unfortunately the glitch was imported along with all the messages, folders, signatures and options chosen from Outlook Express.
Windows updated and my computer restarted itself this morning and since then everytime i try to use a programmes such as internet explorer, a game or google earth I get a message of: "The application or DLL C:WINDOWSsystem32urlmon.dll is not a valid windows image. Please check your installation diskette" in a box with a red cross in it in the centre of the screen.And from a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in it from the toolbar at the bottom a bubble saying "the file or directory WINDOWSSystem32URLMON.DLL is corrupt and unreadable. Please run the chkdsk utilty"
I can't open outlook express 6 without getting this error."There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected. Account: 'mail.optonline.net', Server: 'mail.optonline.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [SYS/TEMP] Service Temporarily Unavailable', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92"
My wife's friend bought a new EMachine with windowsXP and I was setting up Outlook Express to download her web based email. At first I had the POP3 and SMTP settings wrong and when I fixed them I didn't realize I had both the web based email and Outlook Express open at the same time. Now, whenever she tries to open Outlook Express, all it does is hangs open with "not responding" in the title bar. I can't even access the file menu. Is there any way to fix it short of removing Outlook Express and reinstalling it?
When I try to open outlook express I get this message Outlook Express could not be started. The application was unable to open the Outlook Express message store. Your computer may be out of memory or your disk is full. Contact microsoft for further assistance. (0x800c012E, 5). Then when I click ok it says,
Outlook express could not be started because MSOE.DLL could not be started. Outlook express may not be installed correctly. I have enough disk and memory space. I reinstalled outlook express and then updated it and reinstalled it and its exactly the same. Also had problems with mailwasher.
Outlook Express 6 XP.Appended to my Inbox I have folders for different addresses and Message Rules causes the emails to go into the right folders. This has been working well since about 1997. Just clicked on the folder that contains mail received to my most important address and it looks empty.It says in blue next to the folder that there are heaps in there but while all the other folders open fine when I click on this one it does not show any emails and the hour glass comes on and stays on (disallowing any other action in OE from that point on) until I use Control+Alt+Delete to forcibly close Outlook Express.I have been dumping emails from other folders in case it is a capacity thing, have rebooted PC no luck.
I have the XP home and had the Zone alarm installed. Since I have installed the new service pack for XP I have problems with the outlook. It shows me sending & receiving error and doesnt open. I reset the account again for outlook after consulting the ISP but still not luck.
I can send and receive email without any problems, also photos and PowerPoint slide shows. But I receive some email that contains text which I can read but in the same email is a photo etc but where the photo is, there is a box with a red x in it which doesn't open.I am using XP home edition.
I have XP and Use Outlook Express. I cannot open any links I am sent in emails. I get a blank screen when I try. I saw a similar question in this forum from tony 007 and went to the link he received as an answer from Tufnuf. I ran all the .dll suggestions and I still have the problem.
I 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.
Windows XP totally up to date. I think. When I open Outlook Express {email} I keep getting messages that "Outlook Express has encountered a problem and needs to close".....and it does close when I click on send error report. At times when it does work for awhile, when I click to delete a email, that email won't show as deleted from inbox, but when I then go to the deleted folder it shows up there....checking back at the inbox the email is now gone from the inbox.
Get an Internet Explorer Script Error when I open Outlook Express. It reads: An error has occurred in the script on this page. Line 229, Char 1, Error: Object doesn't support this property or method. Code:0.
