Deleting message from server
Several weeks ago I responded to a lengthy message by adding a few lines at
the bottom. The message was never sent and appears to be stuck somewhere in the system. Every first time I attempt to send or receive a message this is what I get: Outlook Express could not post your message. Subject ' Desperately seeking caption', Account: 'Eternal-September', Server: 'news.eternal-september.org', Protocol: NNTP, Server Response: '441 Duplicate message (MD5)', Port: 119, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 441, Error Number: 0x800CCCA9 How can I or somebody clear it?

Ken Bland Create a new Outbox, and Sent Items folder. Do the following for the Outbox, and Sent Items after you move any messages you wish to save to a local folder you create. Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store Folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Write the location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer or, copy and paste it into Start | Run. In WinXP, Win2K & Win2K3, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder Options Icon | View, or in Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options | View. With OE closed, find the Outbox.dbx and Sent Items.dbx file and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.

I believe your instructions were clear but I had to copy them so as to have them available when I went through the process. As it turned out, I didn't need them. Not this time. But thank you, Bruce, very much. Ken Bland |
