Your Sent Items may be corrupted.
- Create a new folder in OE, call it Senttemp. COPY (not move) messages
in Sent Items to the Senttemp folder
- Close Outlook Express
- Rename the file Sent Items.dbx to Sentold.dbx You can use Start, Find
(or Search), Files or Folders, "Sent Items.dbx" to find it. On Win2000
you need enable the display of Hidden or System files in the folder
options and XP you need to use the advanced options to find Hidden or
System files. (You can also determine the location by looking in OE at
Tools, Options, Maintenance, Store Folder.)
- Open Outlook Express again.
- It will create a new empty Sent Items.
- You can copy the messages from Senttemp to Sent Items.
- If you weren't able to copy all the messages from the Sent Items
folder, the following program may be able to recover some of the
messages from the Sentold.dbx file.
DBXtract - http://www.oehelp.com/DBXtract/Default.aspx
With a very large DBX file, this can take hours or days.
- You can then open OE and select the Sent Items and drag the recovered
EML files back into it.
