I thought I'd start a new thread since the first thread of 3/4 (Can email
messages be saved to CD) is getting a little extensive. Because of all of the problems I've had and am having I've reached a point where no one seems to be able to help me. My provider, Cox cable, is telling me that the error message I'm getting, when trying to send messages, is not their error messages and they don't know what they mean so I have to contact Microsoft. I can't afford to get help from Microsoft since we live on Social Security disability due to my husband's cancer. I have to try to take care of these problems and fix them myself. Since my provider can't help and I'm still not able to use Outlook Express I'm asking if it can be or should be uninstalled and reinstalled and if so how is that done? I've gotten everything to work with 2 of the 3 identities, most of the time, except to being able to receive my messages. I have approximately 100 messages that I was reading through webmail but I can't get them to download into Outlook Express. I even tried to use Outlook but I don't know how to use that it doesn't seem as though you can have more then one identity in it. I don't know if that would download my messages either. I'm at a loss and am stuck as to what to do. I've been getting help in this newsgroup and appreciate it but now I need more help. Please advise. -- my_realtor (Linda) |

Now it's not giving me an error message. It's just saying that there are no
new messages but I know I have over 100 at the providers site that I'm reading at the webmail page. Yesterday when I'd try to receive or send I would get a message telling me that the provider did not accept the id or password. I'm using AVG's free anti-virus but I did not install the email scanner. Cox cable tells me it seems that there is something blocking the incoming messages but I don't have a clue as to what it could be, if that is truely the problem. Is there anything else you need to know that could be of some help? -- my_realtor (Linda) "Peter Foldes" wrote: Linda Can you tell us the error message that you are getting.

I sent a test message and it appeared in my 'webmail' but all I'm getting
when I send the messages is the little envelope at the bottom of the screen saying there are no new messages. Although I can now switch between the indentities and can send messages I can't receive them. So close and yet so far. -- my_realtor (Linda) "Bruce Hagen" wrote: Send yourself a message and the error should appear again.

Have you replaced /all/ 3 identities, now that you have AVG AV installed
without Email Scanning? If so, have you tried closing OE and deleteing POP3uidl.dbx from each identity? (NB: Doing so will cause all messages currently on the server to download into OE again, so be prepared to deal with dupes of messages you've already received.) If still no joy, there may be one or more "problem" messages in the queue that are causing the problem. If you can identify them at the webmail page, Delete them there. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) AumHa VSOP & Admin; DTS-L.org my_realtor wrote: Now it's not giving me an error message.

No I have not tried that. Didn't know anything about that file. I just tried
to receive my messages for one of the other identities and got this error message. [There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected. Account: 'pop.east.cox.net', Server: 'pop.east.cox.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR invalid user name or password.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92] The box keeps popping up that requires the user ID and the password. The password has been reset several times by my provider but nothing seems to work. That's when they told me I had to contact Microsoft for additional help. I hate to say this but I'm going to have to pick up on this in a couple of days. I was hoping I could resolve this problem before I left town but no such luck. I will continue these post upon my return. All of the suggestions and help are greatly apprecaited.

NB: Before deleting POP3uidl.dbx, see if
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290684 is of any help. Tools Options Maintenance Store folder will reveal the location of your current Identity's store (http://www.insideoe.com/files/store.htm#storemain). Write it down. In WinXP, Win2K and Win2K03, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Explorer, you must enable Show Hidden Files and Folders under Start Control Panel Folder Options View. *Close OE*! In Windows Explorer, navigate to your store, find and delete POP3uidl.dbx. Again, be prepared for dupes: If messages remain on the server (i.e.,in your inbox at the webmail page), you might want to delete them or move them to another webmail folder (if available) before deleting POP3uidl.dbx. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) AumHa VSOP & Admin; DTS-L.org my_realtor wrote: Oh, how do I get to that file please? paste No I have not tried that.
