Guest Bruce Hagen Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Re: e mail error Crossposted I Outlook Express General. (Please follow up there). The error message suggests your server is denying a relaying request. Are you connected to your server when you tried to send this, or another server? 55X Relaying Errors: http://www.insideoe.com/problems/errors.htm#relay550 It may also be a generic error message. 1: Was the e-mail very large? 2: Is just deleting the message an option? If yes to the above: Check: File | Work Offline and in: View | Layout: Uncheck the Preview Pane. Can you delete it now? If not: 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 Windows XP, 2K & 2K3, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Explorer, you must enable Show Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder Options | View. With OE closed, find the DBX file for the Outbox.dbx and delete it. A new, empty one will be created automatically when you open OE. Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They will eventually become corrupted. Create your own user defined folders for storing mail and move your mail to them. Empty Deleted Items folder regularly. Keep user created folders under 100MB, and Default folders as empty as is feasible. After you are done, follow up by compacting your folders manually while working *offline* and do it often. Click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work Offline (or double click Working Online in the Status Bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed. In Tools | Options | Maintenance: Uncheck Compact messages in background and leave it unchecked. {N/A if running XP/SP2}. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "oldsmobile" <oldsmobile@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:23DB48A6-81FB-4CEA-B6A0-1DAE9A2D8C03@microsoft.com... > have outlook express and when i push receive/send button I get > The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected > by > the server.

Guest PA Bear [MS MVP] Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Re: e mail error To how many email addresses are you sending this one (1) message?
