Outlook Express Issues, Tips, Spell Check, Mail/News Sharing & Auto-Dialing and Auto-Disconnect Options


Tip:  Outlook Express crashes when either hitting enter or using HTML copy and paste:  This can be corrected by   downloading this patch: .MS03-020: June, 2003, Cumulative Patch for Internet Explorer

Tip:  Clicking on a link opens in a new window and is empty:  Start/Run and type this command: REGSVR32
URLMON.DLL. Ok/Reboot.  Then go to:  IE/Tools/Internet Options/Programs/Reset Web Settings.

Tip:  Set Outlook Express as default mail client - Start/Run and type:
        "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\MSIMN.EXE" /REG.  

Tip:  Re-install Outlook Express - Click Start, Run and enter %SystemRoot%\Inf.  Locate the MSOE50.INF file.  Right click it and select Install.

Tip:  Mail and/or Folders are missing:  Close OE. Tools/Folder Options/View/Show Hidden files and folders.    Then do a Search for *.dbx...Open OE/File/Import. Set search options to search hidden files, folders and system    folders. Inbox is under a hidden folder.

Tip:  Get HTTP Hyperlinks in OE to Open IE - Windows Explorer/Tools/Folder Options/File Types. Scroll down to     URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol/Advanced/Edit. Under Application used to perform action it should read:     "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" -nohome

Tip:  Prevent Account Changes in Outlook Express - Start/Run/Regedit    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Outlook Express, Value Name: No Modify Accts, Data   Type:  REG_DWORD (DWORD Value), Value Data: (1 = enable restriction). Create new DWORD value called    "No Modify Accts" and set it to "1" to enable the restriction or "0" to allow users to modify accounts. Restart Outlook    Express for the change to take effect.

Tip:  Create a Shortcut to OE Mailto:  Right click on the Desktop/New/Shortcut. Paste this into the white box:   "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /mailurl:mailto: Go to Next, name it (ex) OE Shortcut, then hit finish.

Tip:  Add OE Email Window (Internet Email Message) to the right click - New.  Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to  this key: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.eml. Highlight .eml then go to Edit/New/Key. Name the key ShellNew.   Highlight ShellNew. In the right pane right click in the blank area and choose New/String Value and name it FileName. Double click FileName and add Email.eml. Close the registry (File/Exit). To test right click on your Desktop choose   New and you will then see Internet Email Message.
