Follow the instructions in the error message and configure your mail
profile. Control Panel>Mail>Show Profiles>Add.
 
Thanks Brian,
I finally configure my profile BUT I'm still could NOT receive mail.
The new error message: "1 of 2 tasks completed successfully and
Inbox synchronizing headers reported error 0x80070057". Please
help me again and I'm sure we could fix this problem together ---
with your kind direction of course! --- Rino

Thar error is often seen when there's a MAPI problem, but you usually aren't
using the MAPI protocols unless you're using an Exchange server as the
mailbox. What type of account(s) do you have defined in the profile?
 
Hi Brian,
Yes, I'm not using MAPI and I used POP3/SMTP account. What is the correct
server I must use? Do I have to use Microsoft Exchange Server? My eMail extension is @apexworld.net.

In receiving the error message: "Can not perform the operation at this time".

I did try sending to my other address and this error message appeared:
! Task 'apexworld.net - Sending' reported error (0x80070057) : 'Could not complete the operation. One or more parameter values are
not valid.'

I'm using MS Outlook Express-6 to post this message and I liked it --- very easy to use but I knew Outlook can do other things which
Outlook Express cannot do. The 2 program steal each other for eMail default client.

Thanks In Advance,
Rino

Do you have only the one account?

Your ISP must tell you that.

Not with a POP account.

If I were you, I'd delete all my accounts and add them in again just to make
sure I didn't add somethjing wrong the first time. If that didn't work, I'd
create a new mail profile.
 
Hi Brian,
Thank You So Much ! Or I should says A Million Thanks for helping me!
Now I can received and sent eMail. Actually I created 2 accounts with
different name --- one using http and the other is POP3 --- I removed http
account and Thanks - it works!

Another important question I would like to ask you: Where or how I could
check all my mails being stored? Can I transfer all my mails to another
drive? Thanks In Advance ---Rino

If I understand your question, the answer is that all mail items, indeed all
Outlook items of any sort (contacts, calendar, tasks, etc) are all stored in
the same Personal Folders file (PST). The usual location for that file in
Windows 2000 or XP is %UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application
Data\Microsoft\Outlook, which is a hidden folder. (Actually, the hidden
folder is %UserProfile%\Local Settings, which makes all subfolders hidden as
well.)
 
Thanks Brian, sorry for this late respond BUT I'm happy to see you've answered all my two posts --- I believed you completely. I
knew you're busy answering people problem BUT do you easily track each of them? I don't know if you already knew this; Click
another News Group and come back right away > press F3 and type ANY name (& even yours) that you wants to track (capitalize is not
necessarily) > press Enter > continue pressing F3 until you found them. Tip: To jump more further down; Click the last name you
want to skip and continue press F3 and repeating.

Scroll Bar and Scrolling Wheel could help also BUT I seldom use them. My method is more faster without straining my eyes.

Also; My advice for others who would follow my foot-steps: Don't use Copy but used MOVE. I think you knew the reason why. For
instruction: Click 2 Open your Outlook Folder > Select All > Right Click 1 selected files & Dragged to any drive of choice >
Dropped to Outlook folder if only available (but don't worry if not available) & yeah, BUT my Outlook never did complaint after I
open it and I can see all my mails again. The ONLY complaint outside of Outlook is when I've to chose "Yes To All" & it replaced
all my pst files in my D: drive.

All The Best & Thanks For All Your Helps - Brian,
Rino


Thanks! --- I've solved it again! I just followed the direction and
Moved it BUT whenever I open my Outlook there still an Outlook Folder
in my C: drive and only 2 files remained ---the .FAV & .SRS files.
Click to expand...

As far as I can tell, Outlook is ALWAYS going to require a few files to
remain on the C drive, typically in
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Outlook. Those files will be outcmd.dat, the .srs file,
the .NK2 file and the .fav file (if you're not using Outlook 2003).
Moreover, if you have Outlook add-ins or use offline folders, extend.dat,
your offline folders file (.ost) and the offline address book files (.oab)
will be kept in
%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook and I don't
think you can change their locations.

Pretty much. I use a real newsreader that makes it relatively easy to track
threads.
 
Hey Brian, please tell me what kind of a "real" newsreader but are you not using OE? My problem is to find right away any threads
that I chose --- can yours do it? ---Rino

I'm using OE, yes. I mark the threads (Message>Watch Conversation) that I
want to track.
 
It not enough to marked & watched and I preferred using F3 key short-cut because I scan and read a lot people problem and not only
in this group but also 15 other group. I even saved some useful solution for my future needs. Thanks Brian, I thought you have a
better newsreader than OE ;o) -- Rino
