I'm getting this error when I try to open an email from a
client, the odd thing is, up until now I've had no problem
opening their emails. Is it the Outlook Express update
that I installed? The sender says that nothing has changed
on their end, do they lie? Any help would be great email
me at brctr(spam stopping useless info)@qwest.net and I'll
be most grateful! thanks, Amy

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000, 2002 & 2003 from
the Office family for Intel PCs. For Outlook Express (OE) support try posting
in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.mail.mac for the Macintosh version of OE

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this
group try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the
source for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).

Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here:

That link was to IE and I may not have a great grasp on
this subject but outlook express is closer to outlook than
IE, no? If it helps, I get the same message when I use
Outlook, so there, back on topic :)
 
OE is a part of IE. If you expand your version of IE on the site you'll see
the newsgroups for OE as well

Anyway; have them check their server settings or have the sending user
recreate his/her mail account. It's more likely to be an issue on the
sending and transmitting end then on the receiving end.
