Hello

after i installed IE7 my OE has stopped working

The preview window has turned gray and if i double click a message the
following message apears:
"One or more parts of this message could not be displayed"

after i click OK another message apears
"There was en error opening the message.
There is not enough memory"

i have tried compacting the messages and registering the dll's but i had i
error when trying to register
mshtml.dll

"mshtml.dll was loaded, but the DllRegisterServer entry point was not found.
This file can not be registered."

I have searched all the web for help, but found not solution.

Anyone know what is wrong and how to fix it?

See point 6 he www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6

Try deleting folders.dbx and see if that helps at all.

Hi,

I basically have had the same problem with a little difference. My messages
in a folder for the past several months disappeared. There were some from
further back that were still there. They would come in and I would see the
number that were not read but would not see the messages. I followed this
procedure and it seems to be working now however it did not recreate the dbx
folder. There is a bak with stuff in it but I am not sure what to do now.

Thanks much.

What is the name of the BAK file?
Is it in the folder with the other DBX files or is it in the Recycle Bin.

It is the bak folder for the one that the messages have disappeared in. I
have several different folders for received messages. It is not the recycle
bin. Is there a way to merge it with the messages I have received in the
past several days? After I deleted the dbx folder that I was having the
problem with and started OE it
started working ok but did not recover the messages that were in the bak
folder. I also noticed I have several dbx files of the same name as several
of my folders with a number after the account ( I have an R folder. This
shows up as "R.dbx" then there is an "R(1).dbx" . There are a couple of
folders like this and they are different sizes than the R.dbx and the R.bak)
I have several rules set to sort my mail to different folders. Can I merge
these folders or should they be deleted? I also see a bunch of search
folders numbered to 17 when I look at the dbx folders. Will a lot of this
stuff be taken care of when I compact the folders or should they be deleted?
I am guilty of not compacting my folders as I was not aware it could be a
problem but after I finish with this I will take care of that. I hope I
have described the problems so their understandable. Thanks much for the
help Les

This might seem complicated, but it should work.
1. If the old folder was named Saved, create a new folder in OE named Old
Saved.
2. Open Old Saved and close it.
3. Close OE.
4. Open Windows Explorer and go to your store folder.
5. Delete Old Saved.dbx
6. Rename Saved.bak to Old Saved.dbx
6. Reopen OE and your old contents should be in Old Saved. You can drag
them where you want.

Caution: Do not store messages in OE's default folders. As soon as
possible move them to user created folders in OE. Try to keep OE folders
Under 100 MB, and don't let them get anywhere near 2 GB. At 2 GB they will
stop working.
