Hi can you help me please. I'm trying to download my
messages using outlook express but, there is a message
that refuses to download and keeps causing timeout to
occur and therefore prevents all subsequent messages from
being downloaded.Is there any way of deleting an
unrecieved message that causes this type of problem so
that I can access all subsequent messages?
Thanks for your time
Ann

PS I have treid increasing the timeout option to maximum
but to no avail.

yes, but that I know of you cannot do it through Outlook.
Call your ISP (or if you're a corporate person, your IT
department), have them help you use a program called
Telnet to get access to your mail account, then delete the
message from there. You will need to know your POP3 mail
server's name. The likelihood is that it is just so large
that it's blocking the others from being downloaded.

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000, 2002 & 2003 from the
Office family for Windows 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).
