Outlook Express Has Problems with Read-Only Mailboxes
Here are a few errors whose symptoms are generalised
but whose causes are very specific. Categorising them in any other way
seemed unreasonable.
Outlook Express Has Problems with Read-Only
Mailboxes
Outlook Express may generate all sorts of
error messages if it's mailbox files' attributes are set to read only.
Here are a few:
-
This
program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.
If the problem persists, contact the program vendor.
-
MSIMN
caused an invalid page fault in module Msoe.dll
-
Outlook Express could not be started. It may not be installed correctly.
Make sure that your disk is not full or that you are not out of memory.
-
Contact
Microsoft support for further assistance. (0x800c012e)
-
Outlook Express could not be started because Msoe.dll could not be
initialized. Outlook Express may not be installed correctly.
-
Folder could not be displayed.
-
Outlook express could not open this folder. Possible causes are: Low
disk space. Low memory.
To Resolve the Problem, the file attributes
of the .DBX files need changed
- Click Start, Find, Files
or Folders.
- In the Named box, type *.dbx
- In the Look in box, delect Local
hard drives (C:)
- Click Find Now
- For each *.dbx file that is found:
- Right-click the file
- Click Properties
- Uncheck the box next to Read-only
if it is checked
- Click Apply
- Click Close
Outlook Express Has Problems with Mal-formed
Mail Headers
If Outlook Express Version 5.0 and
below receives an email message with a mal-formed header, it may cause
the client to crash. The mail receiving process will proceed as normal
then the client will crash with an error message of 'Program performed
an illegal operation...' The problem is this: Outlook Express crashes
before the offending message is deleted from the server, causing the
same error to occur the next time mail is checked.
The only thing that may be done to remedy
this problem is to view and delete the offending message with another
email client. Usually checking the account through some web-based
email is a quick and easy option.
