Default weird email sending problem

Hi,

I'm using same account settings for Outlook 2003 and Outlook Express 6. But
when i sent an email, Outlook 2003 delivering email to the recipient but OE
not delivering. Everything seems normal and seems email sent and going to
the "Sent Items" folder for each.

(I think this is not an anti-virus problem. Because email scanning feature
has already stopped in avast antivirus when i tried to send email.)

What is the problem with OE?

Can you help me please?

Default weird email sending problem

Hi GRaphpix,

There isn't enough information to pinpoint a possible issue. Does the
problem exist when sending an e-mail to one recipient or all? Can you send
and receive a message to your own address? Open the Outbox folder in OE --
is the Outbox empty?

If the problem is with one address only try removing the entry from the
Windows address book, then recreate it.

A harmless troubleshooting step would be to delete the Outbox.dbx file --
while OE is closed. A new Outbox folder will be created when OE starts.

Open the Store Folder



Instead of using search the store folder can be opened directly. Each
identity has its own store folder.



a.. In Outlook Express click on Tools, Options, Maintenance tab...Store
Folder.
b.. Place the cursor at the left of the text of the path to the folder.
c.. Drag the cursor to the right until the text scrolls to the end.
d.. Right-click on the text and choose Copy.
e.. In the Start, Run box right-click Paste. Click OK to open the store
folder.
f.. Close Outlook Express before working with the message store files.

An even easier method when opening that page is to use the Tab to
highlight the folder location, then Ctrl+C and close OE, then use Start/Run
and Ctrl+V. Same caveat about hidden files applies but can be easily
modified in Explorer by using Tools/Folder Options.

Default weird email sending problem

All recipient adresses give me the same result. I can send and receive
message from my own adress. Outbox folder isn't empty i can see the message
which i try to send. And additionally I can send same email to recipients
with webmail clients (for example mail2web.com) with no problems. And
Outlook 2003 also can send without problem. Only problem with outlook
express.

Tried with deleting outbox.dbx not but same problem goes on.

And I have activated smtp log for my domain you can see below log file...

Default weird email sending problem

Did you delete Deleted Items.dbx as Tim suggested?

Do the following for the Outbox, and if the problem persists, repeat for
Sent Items after you move any messages you wish to save to a local folder
you create.

Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store Folder will reveal the location of
your Outlook Express files. Press the Tab key to highlight the folder
location, then Ctrl+C. Close OE, then Start | Run | Ctrl+V will put the
location in the box - Click OK and you'll see the OE files. Otherwise, write
the location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer.

In WinXP, Win2K & Win2K3, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default
marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable
Show Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder Options
Icon | View, or in Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options | View.

With OE closed, find the DBX file for the folder in question {Outbox.dbx}
and delete it. A new one will be created automatically when you open OE.

General precautions for Outlook Express:

Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They will eventually become
corrupt. Create your own user defined folders for storing mail and move your
mail to them. Empty Deleted Items folder regularly. Keep user created
folders under 100MB, and Default folders as empty as is feasible.

After you are done, follow up by compacting your folders manually while
working *offline* and do it often.

Click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder tree so no folders are
open. Then: File | Work Offline (or double click Working Online in the
Status Bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until
the compacting is completed.

Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer
of protection that eats up CPUs and causes a multitude of problems such as
time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A/V program will
continue to protect you sufficiently. For more, see:
http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

In Tools | Options | Maintenance: Uncheck Compact messages in background and
leave it unchecked. {N/A if running XP/SP2}.

That's a classic symptom of anti-virus scanning the outgoing email. Turn
off Scanning for Outgoing Email and I think it'll work.
