The problem is probably not with Outlook Express but with your e-mail server. Do you use a web based program such at Hotmail or Gmail, or do you use a service provided by your ISP? Definitely need more information here before any help can be rendered.

How to Change from Outlook Express to Outlook

With MS Office 2007 or 2000 just open Outlook and the setup window appears. Probably the same for other versions. Follow along and at some point you will probably be asked if you wish to make Outlook your default mail handler.

OE Problem

Joe, Tnx. for the response. I finally got it back by "System Restore" going back as far as I could. It may have been caused by something I did when I had no connection. Phone line to house was replaced and that cured the connection problem. I must say that I've had problems ever since Yahoo became affilliated with AT&T. Don't know if that was line problem or not. Tnx. Agn. Grady

Sending Unwanted Multiple Emails

Someone asked this previously and as I recall no solution was found. I just asked google about this problem and found this solution: The Send Items.dbx file has reached the file size limit (2 GB) that the Outlook Express can handle it. After send the email, OE can't copy to Send Items folder the mail that was send, and the mail stills at the Outbox folder. All my steps to solve this problem: - To backup mails inside the Send Items folder, i create a new folder and copy all mails to this new folder; - Exit Outlook Express; - Delete Send Items.dbx file; - Start Outlook Express (OE Will create a new, and empty, Send Items.dbx file). It was the last post to this thread.

Don't know about Outlook Express, since mine is Outlook.

In Outlook, if accidently set it 'work offline', it won't send mails out. The 'work offline' option is under 'FILE'.

I had multiple phone/comp. problems untill the man replaced the line TO THE HOUSE. Lost OE completely and was irked! I kept restoring system and it came back WITH O.E.
Of course , you have to do SOME updating SOMETIMES after a restore. That was the only fix this old man knew to do and wasn't sure that it would cure my ills, but it did. I've used O.E. for so long that I just hate to TRY and go to another e mail program.

Your phone or cable line being replaced has nothing to do with Outlook Express.

I would suspect that if you've done multiple restores a setting got changed somewhere.

What happens when you try to send an email? Do you get any kind of error messages?
