I get sending and receiving errors on my outlook express 2003 version which says
Task 'gtv-dubai.com - Sending' reported error (0x8004210B) : 'The operation timed out waiting for a response from the sending (SMTP) server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).'

For a number of reasons, I run both Outlook and Outlook Express (on a variety of machines that I have networked). Why is it that whichever is open when mail arrives displays the mail but those emails are not subsequently found in the other program? Put simply, if Outlook is running and receives an email, if/when I later open Outlook Express and download messages, any messages already received by Outlook are not "received" - (and vice-versa).

I would like for ALL emails to be received by both programs (not simply on a first-come-first-served basis).

Is there a "fix"?

This is totally expected. Mail programs *download* email, thus removing it from the mail server. As you see the first program to download the mail gets the mail.

The solution is to either use IMAP instead of POP3 (I'm weak on this, but my understanding is that this will work) which leaves the messages on the server, or in the advanced settings for your POP3 account in Outlook you can also check "leave a copy on the server".

My email was OE and was transferred to Yahoo by AT&T - I want Outlook express back, but AT&T tells me that I cannot go back. Is there another email account that I can use?

I want to transfer my old (Outlook Express) email to my new machine (using Outlook). I tried to go through Windows Live Mail first (since it is sort of replacing Outlook Express) but I couldn't do it. Do you have any concrete suggestions. The old mailbox files are about 8 GB in size.

I would like to transfer my Outlook Express address book into Outlook Contacts where I have all my contacts addresses and telephone numbers that I synchronized from my Palm, but not my email addresses that I have in Outlook Express. How do I do that?

Thank you

It is possible to uninstall Outlook Express- pretty much... Start/Settings/Control Panel/Add or Remove Programs and select Windows Components on the left.

Since Outlook Express and Outlook are not one, may Outlook Express be deleted completely?
J

In theory, I suppose, but the problem is that it's so tightly interwoven with Internet Explorer, which itself is so rightly interwoven with Windows that it's typically just not worth the effort. There is no simple "uninstall".

My suggestion is to switch to using Mozilla Thunderbird. It is designed to be a simple email program or expand with the use of addons to be as powerful as Outlook. I use it to manage my email, contacts with phone numbers and addresses and notes, and my calendar. I can also sync it with my Pocket PC running Windows Mobile 5 using a third party application called Birdie Sync.

No. You must first have them in an instance of Outlook Express. Then you can
import them into Outlook.

If I copy the files in the store folder on Outlook Express:

"On the old machine, the easiest way to locate Outlook Express' email store is to ask Outlook Express. Fire it up, and then in Tools, Options, on the Maintenance tab there's a button labeled Store Folder. Click that, and it will tell you the folder containing your email folder.

Copy the entire contents of that directory to a floppy, CD-ROM or share on your network."

Can these be opened in Outlook (not Outlook Express)?

Thanks!

I have migrated from Outlook Express to Outlook 2002. What I do not see when I open a message containing attachments (.jpeg etc) is a plain old picture like I had in Outlook Express. Is there some sort of setting I need to redo on my outlook 2002??

the folders size stayed the same, I then deleted all individual dbx files( including the deleted DBX folder,size did reduce but they return, and my indentity folder is huge again.
what is happening ??, why can't I keep my current indentity folder small.

thanks

PST files can be read only by Outlook, not Outlook Express. I believe by running Outlook you can export to Outlook Express.

Just solved the problem (0x800C0133 error in outlook express), simply create a new identity and import all the emails and settings in the new identity. it should work that way.

THIS ERROR 0x800C0133 IS CAUSED BY THE OE BECAUSE HE CANT HANDLED ANY MORE THAN 2 GB OF MAILS , DOESNT MATTER HOW MANY MAILS THERE IS , IT JUST CAN MANAGED 2 GB .

THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO BACKUP ALL THE .DBX FILES AND IN OE DELETE PERMANENT A LARGE NUMBER OF MAILS .

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.

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?

Regards,

Diet Simon

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 . . .

PS I tried to click on the article "Differences Between Outlook and Outlook Express" and I immediately receive the Error Message "Forbidden

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.

2005-06-02T18:38:46Z

I've reinstalled XP and am trying to re-import the messages from my old OE inbox to my new "empty" OE inbox. The messages are saved on a disk, and are also copied on the new desktop. I can get about a third of my saved messages re-import to the new inbox, but that's it. I've tried several times and OE always stops importing at the same number of messages--roughly 2500 of 7500 messages total. Any ideas how to coax OE into importing all of them? I've just purchased a OE repair software, whose demo was able to extract some of the messages from the backup file, and I'm hopeful it can do the trick. But while I wait for that software to arrive, any ideas would be appreciated.

I have been using Outlook Express errors repair tool for the past few months and LOVE it.
I've even recommended it to all my friends. Outlook Express more stable and secure than other programs.

Dallas: check out the "File" menu, "Import and Export" item. That should let you import your mail and contacts.

B Hamm: unfortunately OE cannot be extended, so there's no macro capability there. Look into it's rules processing though. Outlook has even more powerful rules facility that may be of use.

Our company gets between 300 to 400 emails per day. We are currently using Outlook Express (OE) as the viewer on our back-up email server, and have taken advantage of the OE message rules feature to "filter out" postmaster and other repeated nusance incoming emails.

Do you know if macros can be used with OE? We not interested in elaborate/expensive software to use as an add-in or in place of Outlook or OE.

I have a better understanding of the differences between Outlook and OE from your article ("How do Outlook and Outlook Express relate? "), it was of great help.

Outlook Express is NOT required in order to run Outlook. I'd have to know the specific error message you're seeing to try and diagnose what might be causing the problem you're seeing.

Hi Leo

I am using Outlook.

People tell me I don't need Outlook Express
installed when you want to install and use Outlook, but I have tried to do it as they say.

What am I doing wrong, because my version of Outlook (XP) complains and would not start without Outlook Express installed?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Francois Moller

Looks like your account configuration is wrong. Normally where you currently see "172.16.1.60", you would see the name of a mail server. You need to check with your ISP and find out what SHOULD be there, and update your account information to specify the right things for SMTP and POP3 servers.

A question actually, can I create a separate address book for Outlook Express where I keep a large number of contacts and a distribution list.
This would be separate from my normal contacts in OE although the names might appear in both. I'd import the names from a .csv file.

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.

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.

I don't really have any good answers for you other than to guess that outlook 2003 probably won't change/help. Typically these types of issues are a function of the ActiveSync software used to synchronize between the devices.

Dear Leo,
Thanks for answering my previous post! I have an iPaq and have synchronized with Outlook 2002. As far as I know the Notes however can't transfer categories into the iPaq. I have tried to create folders in my iPaq and file them but the Notes disappear from outlook. It seems that outlook can only 'see' the notes when they are moved up to one sub folder from 'My Documents' in the iPaq. But that I mean that I have a folder called 'Notes' in 'My Documents' in the iPaq and outlook can read and synchronize that. Any other folder within 'Notes' cannot be read by outlook. Is there any way I can make Outlook see the whole tree (ex: My Documents/Notes/Hotels), or any way I can have categories in the iPaq? Will outlook 2003 solve either of these?
Thanks. Alexis

Since email programs download the messages to their own local storage, what you're experiencing is expected. You need to make sure that both are configured to leave messages on the server for some period of time.

I have Outlook on one computer and Outlook Express on a different one for the same email account. When I read messages on one computer, those messages do not appear at all in the inbox on the other computer, so my two inboxes in the two programs have different messages. Since it is the same email account, shouldn't it have the same inbox wherever I access it, and in any program? How do I fix this? I tried to recover the messages by setting the option "leave messages on server" but the messsages didn't appear in the other inbox.

Is there any way that I can get Outlook express to use the Outlook contacts folder? I want to be able to make changes to my contacts and then send e-mails through express. I don't want to have to keep importing the address book from outlook to use on express.
thanks

I would, in outlook create a Personal Address Book, copy all my contacts into that, and then Import that into Outlook Express. I've not tried this, but it seems the most direct route.

Not quite sure what to tell you. I just verified an OE to Outlook2003 import that included subfolders and all worked as expected. Are there any other common threads to the emails that might be missing? Do you have your view in Outlook set such that everything is displayed?

I have been using OE. I just installed Outlook 2003. Is there a way to transfer ALL of my folders and subfolders with their messages intact over to Outlook 2003. What seems to happen is that the messages (or at least some of them)come over but not the folders

Sure. Just make sure that one (or both) have the advanced setting "leave message on server" set. If you do that for both, you'll have to manage deleting the files on server somehow (there are options). If you do it only on one, then make sure that one always reads email *first*, as the second will remove the messages from the POP3 server.

This later scenario is what I use when travelling, where I'm reading mail on another machine than I do at home. When I return home, I have one download that gets all the mail again.

Can Outlook and Outlook Express be used on two different pc's to access (read and pull in) the same emails on one POP3 account.

FWIW: openoffice does not include a mailer / PIM. If that's all you're looking to replace, you may need to look elsewhere. I have played some with open office and have been reasonably impressed, but noticed the lack of an outlook equivalent right away.

For anyone else that comes along via a Google search...

Outlook 2000 doesn't seem to support IMAP very well/if at all. After using it for years with my POP accounts, I've had to recently switch to OE in order to work with my new IMAP account. OE is fine -- except I miss having calendar and better contact mgmt integrated into my mailer. So presently, I'm forced to use both of them.

I'm too poor to upgrade to Outlook 2003/XP. But I am beginning to seriously consider moving to OpenOffice or one of the other free/cheap Office clones.

Annette: where are you having trouble? Typically it's a matter of installing outlook, and configuring your email accounts, and off you go.

I thank you for the explanation as to the difference between the two. I just wish I could get someone to explain how I can set up Outlook 2000 to be mailer handler. I am presently using outlook express v6. Am still using windows 98 with upgrades.

I think Outlook uses the concept of "profile" (Outlook user profile: A group of e-mail accounts and address books. Typically, a user needs only one but can create any number, each with a set of e-mail accounts and address books. Multiple profiles are useful if more than one person uses the computer. ) When I go to Outlook "help," it seems to offer plenty of advice on how to tap into this feature. You can apparently set up Outlook to prompt for which profile you want to use each time Outlook is launched. I've never tried it, but assume it works akin to identities in O/E...

I am considering an upgrade from O/E to Outlook 2000 to gain the calendar and task organizing capabilities. Does Outlook support mulitple identities as O/E does? I haven't been able to find any specific info on this.

You are quite correct. Outlook 2000 did not, but I overlooked the fact that with Outlook 2002/XP, and now again with Outlook 2003, Hotmail support has been added natively. Thanks for pointing it out. (Now using it myself also :-).

As far as I can tell, it does't download into your common inbox with other accounts, though, but rather sets up a parallel set of virtual folders that are a view onto the information up on hotmail. Still, it makes managing hotmail email much, much easier.

I believe Outlook 2002 supports Hotmail, and I know for a fact that Outlook 2003 does (I'm using it now)

I tend to agree with you. OE is often the correct choice for home use. And you're correct, Outlook does not support Hotmail the same way OE does. They keep threatening to remove the support from Hotmail that allows OE to continue to support it, though. Each time it's mentioned there's an backlash, so the result is it's still there. For now :-).

(Outlook supports hotmail in the sense that you can set the homepage for a folder to the hotmail homepage. Not "support" in the native sense.)

For what it's worth, i haven't found one thing that Outlook can do for your basic home-end user that OE can't do just as well. Not that it makes any difference to me, but Outlook doesn't seem to be able to handle Hotmail accounts either.

What I don't understand is why every report, execpt this one, that I've read ignores Express' Internet News Reader. This is the most use news reader in the world today (I'm not saying the best). Even MS ignores it.
