I have Outlook Express and I use it regularly, but recently when I tried to install MS Outlook (to use the to-do list and calendar features with my Ipaq) all files installed, but when I open it, it cannot open the Outlook window (and therefore the entire program). Is there a feature in Outlook Express or windows that could be preventing the program? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, to no avail.

I can't get Outlook Express to allow me to access my Hotmail account. In Outlook it was an automatic option for me to click and get my Hotmail folders set up, but with OE there's not automatic pop-up option box. What to do?

Thanks! in advance for any helpful advice you may be able to offer . . .

Hotmail is turning off Outlook Express access for free accounts.

How can I transfer saved emails from my laptop which uses Outlook to my desktop computer which uses Outlook Express?

Thanks.

Where do I get Outlook Express repair tools referred to above?

Mistake 0x800C0133 is making my life misery. Not letting emails in. Out is OK. Tried the compressing option, didn't work for me. There's another suggestion somewhere that I've lost track of, to make a new inbox in Outlook Express. How?

My Outlook Express will not delete normally, only by using simultaneously "Delete" and "Shift", after which no deleted mails are visible anywhere.

I have to say I'm only PC semi-literate. As a journalist/translator I need email desperately.

Any simple help out there?

Mistake 0x800C0133 is making my life misery. Not letting emails in. Out is OK. Cable service is OK. I've heard something about an Inbox workaround but don't know if I did it right? Also someone mentioned a compression fix?

Actually there is a bit of code shared. this was (is?) evident in the Advanced mail settings SSL bug which for many years did not click the port number to 465 when the ssl checkbox is checked - it stayed on port 25. this same bug appeared in both outlook express and outlook.
