    OE5 will not open any messages - reinstall not worked, help!

    As a follow up: After many months of happily using Phoenix mail software my Outlook Express installation seems to have fixed itself through the automatic updates of Win2k. I'm guessing from this that whatever was causing the problem was a known issue that they just hadn't dealt with at the time...

    OE5 will not open any messages - reinstall not worked, help!

    Thanks... I've been using Phoenix mail for a while now, it's not quite as versatile as OE but I do trust it to not die on me constantly. I just opened up OE to have a go at your solution and the damn thing seems to have fixed itself!!! F***ing M$ weird sh**! I don't know, I really don't... You...

    Need UK Credit Card Payment Processor

    I'm just starting up trying to find a company to process the transactions. I'm a complete newbie at all this but for a scattergun approach to predicted sales figures http://www.securetrading.com come out very well for a variety of different turnover scenarios. Good luck with the hunt, I'm on...

    OE5 will not open any messages - reinstall not worked, help!

    Thanks, I've got Phoenix Mail set up and working fine now. Cheers for all the help. I do still wonder what happened to OE but really I couldn't give a rat's arse too much anymore since their help pages don't seem to have a clue, the program couldn't tell me and I'm not using something that's...

    OE5 will not open any messages - reinstall not worked, help!

    *laughs* jmatt, thanks for all your suggestions, I love your first idea which boiled down to 'your problem is that you are using Mircosoft software therefore it will by it's nature be crap' :) I followed the instructions on those support links but to no avail. I was hoping that despite my error...

    OE5 will not open any messages - reinstall not worked, help!

    Thanks! How would I go about recreating an account? I love your signoff tag :) I've done quite well at working out what it isn't so far but unfortunately don't know enough about the systems to know what that leaves to check! Mata Animations with a twisted sense of humour...

    OE5 will not open any messages - reinstall not worked, help!

    Hi folks, I've been having hell trying to get Outlook Express 5 working after a system crash a month ago. The problem is that it won't open messages, it just states 'There was an error opening this message An error has occured' which I thought was very informative of it. Hmm. It...

    Where does outlook keep my email (inbox)

    I've got it worked out... [Many thanks Wolluf whose post pointed the way.] For some reason Win2k Pro hides the 'local settings' folder when you're in the Windows explorer (which is why you can't just browse to the file when you're trying to import the old emails) so you have to manually put in...

    Recovering emails in Outlook Express after a user profile corrupts

    Hi, Many thanks Wolluf. I've found out where the problem was but your post pointed the way. For some reason Win2k Pro hides the 'local settings' folder when you're in the Windows explorer (which is why you can't just browse to the file when you're trying to import the old emails) so you have...

    Where does outlook keep my email (inbox)

    It sounds like you're having a bit of a similar problem to me (see my thread entitled 'Recovering emails in Outlook Express after a user profile corrupts'). I've tried finding an old email folder by searching for files with the .pst extentsion but with no luck. I'm at work and haven't tried...

    Recovering emails in Outlook Express after a user profile corrupts

    It is Outlook Express. Thanks, I'll have a go at what you suggest. What is the file type for Outlook Express emails? I tried searching for .eml, .dbx, .bloomin'-everything-I-could-think-of with no luck at all to see if I could locate the files with the file search facility but with no luck...

    Recovering emails in Outlook Express after a user profile corrupts

    Hi all, About two weeks ago my user profile corrupted in Win2k pro. I made myself a new profile and things seem to be going okay (although the list of profiles doesn't seem to match the files that exist in 'documents and settings' but that's a different issue). Basically, I need to be able to...
