Error message for outlook express
Error 0x800C0131 when using Outlook Express is often the result of a
damaged file, folders.dbx. This file is at the heart of the message store and contains amongst other things, details of how you have arranged your folders list, the list of newsgroups on your news server and also a record of those messages in your Inbox and subscribed newsgroups which you have not yet read, One fix is, with Outlook Express closed, to look for the file folders.dbx and rename it folders.old. Folders.dbx is located in your message store and the location of this folder can be determined when in Outlook Express by using Tools | Options | ! Maintenance | Store folder and noting its location and the browsing to it using Windows Explorer. On reopening Outlook Express a new copy of folders.dbx will automatically be created however your local folders (message store) will appear as a single alphabetic list in the folders bar so if you have them structured in any way you will need to rebuild this. Similarly if you want to add a newsgroup you will only find your current newsgroups listed so will have to refresh the list if you want to add another. -- Mike Maltby Bob pleasedonotspam.microsoft.com wrote: HI.. i am not able to send or receive outlook express 6 meassages and obtain the following error.. using me 2000 operating system for windows.

Thank you Michael.
You were able to help me fix what Earthlink wasnt able to yesterday and I have lived with this problem for over 2 years. I have been accessing my mail by the web browser.

Bob,
Thanks for the feedback and I'm pleased to read that the "fix" I suggested worked. I have lived with this problem for over 2 years Aren't self help newsgroups wonderful - and no, I'm not being sarcastic or anything like that. It's rare for me to have a computer problem and not to then be able to find a solution via either a newsgroup or Google. -- Mike Maltby Bob pleasedonotspam.microsoft.com wrote: Thank you Michael.
