Default Cannot send email on OE6

I wish you had continued with you first thread.

Did you try importing the dbx files?
The corrupt file should not import.

Sending problems are usually caused by a corrupt Outbox and/or Sent Items.

: Tim,
:
: Renaming the Pop3uidl.dbx file did not work.
:
: Removing all the .dbx files and starting fresh did work.
:
: Now it seems that one of the .dbx files may be causing the problem.
: How can I find out which file is causing the problem without loading
: each file one at a time (about 100 or more files)?

:
: Close Outlook Express First
:

: b.. Place the cursor at the left of the text of the path to the
folder.
