Lost OE Messages

On XP Pro SP3, IE 7, OE 6 I am in transition mode for microsoft.public. Newsgroups. Had the Microsoft server and the Freenews Netfront server accounts. As some of my Microsoft server newsgroup were closed as of today I deleted my Microsoft server account. In my OE Message Store C:\Documents and Settings\x\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{AF183F5C-720B-4C22-B5B2-35F2D38D2B3B}\Microsoft\Outlook Express I now have some double entries in Folders such as Email.dbx 1683KB and Email (1).dbx 139 KB The Folder Email shows up but is empty. How do I find the messages?

Check mail from another address!

Hi, I have mu outlook express 6 setup to check my mail and my wifes as she rarely goes on. I thought I can download from tiscali.pop and set "leave copy on server". But oddly, most mails I have received to not show when she finally gets to go into OE6 later. I've just sent her a couple of test massages that appear in my box after a quick send/rcve. Then I log out and into her OE6 and they are there? Why aren't others there? Any thoughts. tia, Richard

nntp behind a firewall

My job network doesn't let me pass by port 119. Some nntp servers offer other ports in order to workaround that (like port 80). I've tried to set the OE to access news.microsoft.com by port 80, but it was no good. Is there some alternate port to reach Microsoft news server? Is there some other tip to workaround this problem? Thanks in advance.

how to get Outlook Express to continue after failing to read a newsgroup message

I use outlook express as a newsreader. Sometimes I want to get the entire server holdings of a particular newsgroup. Trouble is, OE seems to snag when it was able to read a message header but for some reason it can't retrieve the body. It snags with Outlook Express could not download the requested message. It is likely that the message was removed or expired from the server.

more versions of .dbx file

I've noted this strange behaviour on my Windows XP SP3 domain client configured to use Outlook Express 6 to send and receive mail: many times in the last months the inbox folder was suddenly empty. Looking at the local oulook storage folder I can see many versions of the Inbox.dbx file: -inbox.dbx -inbox(1).dbx -inbox(2).dbx -inbox(3).dbx ..... If I delete the last inbox.dbx file and rename the previous version I can see all my inbound mails. I don't know why this happens and if is it any way to fix this issue. Thanks in advance. Ing.
