Default DBX on mapped drive

Hello,

Users in our domain are getting an OE error: 0x800C013B from time to
time.
I know, I know, sent item corruption and all. I have recreated all
dbx's many times already, but it does not fix the problem.


We use schema where users maiboxes are stored in servers mapped drive
and if I move mailboxes to local machine, OE starts to work fine
again. When I move them back, it works until some big attach comes to
mailserver and when OE starts to pull that mail, I get the same error
again.


Outlook Express version 6.0

Default DBX on mapped drive

1) Outlook Express questions go to:
microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general

2) OE is not really and enterprise messaging solution. While it may work on
a network drive (at least prior to XP sp2) it is not something I would
recommend. That particular error is common with .dbx file corruption,
specifically sentitems (I think you know that). The 'corruption' may just
be that the connectivity to the file was insufficient at the time of access
or that the sentitems.dbx is too large.

I recommend an email client designed to access its database across a
network.

That's because OE does not work on a network and was never intended to do
so.

But what's diffrent between using some files locally or from network drive
?!
It's first and last time when I buy Microsoft prodcuts. Too many things not
work and there's no explanetion why they don't work

There so good that there Linux exist.

Thanks
Pawel

unfortunately, you didn't "buy" OE! it comes "free" with windows!

PS - look at /my/ headers!

A lot, actually. Note that even Outlook's PST files are not meant to be
accessed over a network drive. If you have a business network/domain, you
ought to be using more appropriate software for your messaging...

Did you see what happens when you go to tools | options | folder maintenance
& try to change the Store Folder to a non-local drive? It doesn't work,
right? You can't select & apply a network drive.

things not work and there's no explanetion why they don't work


Well, of course, you didn't buy OE. It's part of IE. Which is part of
Windows. :-)

Have fun! There's also Thunderbird, Eudora, and lord knows what else.

Note that in the future, you should post OE questions to more appropriate
groups - such as microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlooke xpress

Thanks
Pawel

Many email clients on Linux are not meant to access their databases over a
network either.

Good luck to you.

That's correct. In fact I can't think of ANY email clients that are designed
to access databases over a network. What I can do, and what the OP can do,
is to set up a mail server. I have free mail servers in Linux, and there is
at LEAST one free one for Windows.
