Hello. Thanks for running this «forum».
Is there any decypherable reason why Outlook Express does not receive attachments sent with messages via Outlook? I'm phrasing the question as succinctly as possible!
Thanks.

Do they not show at all, or are they just blocked? Might check this article: http://ask-leo.com/archives/000027.html

Hello,
I am trying to access ATT email from their internet POP and SMTP servers instead of dialing into their private network. The problem is I can receive email in Outlook 2002 but cannot send email through the SMTP. I get an error couldn't log in - bad username/password. This function works on Outlook Express. I either need a calandar that works with Outlook Express or a any suggestions on how to get Outlook 2002 working. ATT says sorry bud -- we only support Outlook Express. After reading your article I understand they are different programs. Any Hints

Well, if OE works there's no reason that Outlook shouldn't work. The key is to make sure that the sending server, as well as the advanced options for the outgoing server are identical to your OE configuration. They key ones might be whether the outgoing server requires authentication, and which of the 3 or so options should be used.

How can I move email I already received in Outlook to Outlook Express?

Outlook Express supports Import of messages (File Menu, Import) directly from Outlook.

Hello,

I am using Outlook 2000 and Outlook Express on the same machine. I have two seperate e-mail accounts through the same ISP. All of my incoming e-mails for both accounts is showing up in my Outlook express inbox. Any idea how I can fix this? Thamks.

If they're truly two separate accounts, then OE is configured to read them both. Check the configuration. It's also possible that you've been given two email addresses that feed the same account ... you'll have to check with your ISP on that.

Hi Leo,
