Keep your emails safe in Outlook Express

Admin — Mon, 17 May 2010 05:18:13 +0000

Email storage in Outlook Express is similar to that of Outlook. The only difference is that Outlook uses a PST file for storage of data, while Outlook Express makes use of dbx files for storage of emails. The loss of emails in Outlook Express is again caused by the same reasons that lead to loss of emails in Outlook, like oversized dbx files, corruption of dbx file due to virus attacks, accidental deletion of emails etc.

Among the above stated causes of loss of emails, the loss of emails due to oversized dbx file can be said to be the most common reason. This is because, most of us fail to arrange the emails that we receive in an organized manner, and consequently end up losing essential data. This happens because we fail to notice the growing size of the dbx file, and when the file exceeds the maximum file size limit, it leads to corruption of the dbx file.

An effective ways of tackling this issue is by creating separate folders, and storing the emails in various folders, instead of a single folder. By doing this, the size of the dbx file is reduced considerably, reducing chances of it getting corrupted due to exceeding the size limit.

If you fail to create separate folders, and end up losing all your emails, you do not have to get anxious, as you can recover Outlook Express dbx files using REMO Recover Outlook Express software. This Outlook Express repair utility lets you recover all the lost emails from Outlook Express completely and also lets you repair corrupted dbx file. This software makes use of the New Astute Scan technology for locating and recovering the lost or deleted emails.

In Outlook 2002 and its earlier versions, the pst files are in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) format, and the overall size has a limit of 2 GB.

REMO Recover Outlook (pst) software, does not truncate the oversized pst file, but creates a new pst file, and copies all the contents of the corrupted pst file, onto the new pst file.

The two methods of email management

Admin — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 15:01:30 +0000

There are basically two types of email. Those are web based and client based. You are most likely familiar with both. With web-based mail such as the free addresses and mailboxes supplied by AOL, Yahoo, and Hotmail one has little control over their messages. We save these in online storage and often there are set time limits before the server (AOL et al) deletes our mail for us. Client base email allows us to save all of our mail and its attachments to files on our computer hard drive. It is difficult to say which of these is more treacherous to use. With web based email you are at the mercy of the huge corporate portals. They are more than capable of losing messages left and right. With a localized client based email system you are in your own hands and suffer the consequences of personal error.

In either of the two email system scenarios messages are constantly being lost. This can be due to data loss during transfers. File corruption during compression and of course accidental deletion.

The main reason to install a localized email client is that when your messages are lost email recovery is quite simple with assistance from Disk Doctors. Disk Doctors makes two programs specifically designed for mail recovery from computers using the world’s two most popular email clients. Those are Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express. The latter being the stripped down version of Outlook. Outlook uses the PST (Personal Storage Table) method of saving messages and Outlook Express uses the special Microsoft DBX file system.

Disk Doctors DBX repair differs in that this program for Outlook Express searches your entire hard drive for individual mail recovery of messages suffixed with the DBX extension. Outlook Express repair is more the process of retrieving lost Express email.
