Hello - I'm sure I'm not using OE right.  I get multiple account downloads
for the same accounts and it takes forever.  Here's what I want to do:
1. I have 2 emails accounts, one POP3 and one MSN.
2. I have multiple email addresses that I want to use to both send and

When sending a email in OE6 I wanted to do a copy/paste smiley face (giff
file) into the body of the message. It appeared to look correct but when I
went to send it I received an error message saying the file could not be
sent.  Is there a way to do this?

I have 2 computers which both have OE set up for newsgroups. I sent a post
on PC1 and later when I looked for it on PC2 it wasn't there. Checked PC1
and it is there. And I noticed a couple of other posts that I'd been
watching aren't there.

.. that might cause OE to not be able to find the server?  We have two
computers in the house, both on cable - different accounts, not networked
together.  For several hourse yesterday, I couldn't use OE - constantly got
the message "Cannot find server" or words to that effect.  ...

Currently, spammers are using the moribund message-fragmentation "feature" of OE-which splits messages into multiple parts and the
client then reassembles them-to send spam.  They are also (ab)using HTML to display spam in tables and hidden in HTML.
I have a series of OE message ...

When I receive an e-mail message in Outlook Express that has a link to a
website in it, I cannot follow the link. If I hover the cursor over the
link, it changes to the hand symbol but when I click nothing happens. This
has only just started to happen, I have never had this ...

Can someone explain or point me to a web page that explains the advantages
or disadvantages of sending an email in html or plain text?

Just for the last couple of days, most incoming emails show attachment icons
when they contain no attachments. I have not selected the 'Read as plain
text' option - I read one suggestion that having this option selected might
be the cause.

I am having a problem sending messages from applications other than OE.  If
OE is not open when I click send , I get this error message.

    I have one newsgroup which is very large and when a large file is
downloaded a low memory message comes up.
   If I download a smaller text message, no problem.
   Went off line and tried to compact it but no success.

Hi.  My OE became very corrupt recently, so I gave up and moved over to
Outlook.  I had thought, luckily, that I had a recent backup and could get at
older messages in OE, but it does not want to read them.  I have copied them
back to a new folder on the hard drive, and removed ...

Hi every one.
I have two subordinates but are using same email IDs. I have configured in
the OE6 on the WinXP-Prof PCs. I asked them to make a cc to me for all the
messages they sent.

I'm lost on this and it's probably two questions.
I'm trying to find how to get the from line to show up on my outgoing
messages.
I currently have 3 identities all from the same server. Is there a way to

I have been using a dial-up connection for over a year and OE has always
worked normally. Yesterday I installed broadband since when I cannot receive
email.  The POP3 server will not respond.  Any ideas?

Once in a while I am getting empty emails. Today, I got two.
In Inbox, they registered only envelope icons without any subject nor
sender/recipient addresses.
I smell that this is a kind of intended, "invisible" spyware kind of stuff.
