Default Error code 0x800C0133 occur during receive mail

Hi Stephen,

The Inbox could be damaged, but I can't find the specific error connected to
a damaged Inbox. There is the error "0x800C013C" which does indicate a
problem with the Inbox. I think it would be worthwhile to see if the
Inbox.dbx file is the problem. First move the messages you want to keep to
one or two new Outlook Express folders (or otherwise backup the messages).
Try sending and receiving before renaming or deleting the Inbox.dbx file. Do
you have any other folders used when receiving (with the use of message
rules)? If the a new Inbox or other folder does not resolve the issue it
might be easier to create a new identity than finding the damaged DBX file
through trial and error. Messages could then be imported into the new
identity.

Tip: Compacting messages in Tools, Options, Maintenance, Cleanup Now might
allow sending/receiving again. Do this in offline mode to lessen the risk of
corruption. If this works it would be a good idea to reduce the number of
messages kept in the default Outlook Express folders.

1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, and then click
Windows Explorer.
2. In Windows Explorer, on the Tools menu, point to Find, and then click
Files or Folders.
3. You may need to include hidden files and folders (Windows 2000 and XP).
4. Type Outbox.dbx in the Named box, and then click Find Now.
5. Right-click the file name, and then click Rename.
6. Rename the file to Outbox.old.

Note that deleting a .dbx file also deletes any e-mail messages or other
data in the folder. The Store folder can be found in Tools, Options,
Maintenance tab.Store Folder. The text for the path can be copied using a
right-click and then entered in the Start, Run box. OK to open the Store
folder. Each identity has its own Store folder. Disregard this method if
Outlook Express cannot be opened.

Restart Outlook Express.


Open the Store Folder

Instead of using search the store folder can be opened directly. Each
identity has its own store folder.



a.. In Outlook Express click on Tools, Options, Maintenance tab...Store
Folder.
b.. Place the cursor at the left of the text of the path to the folder.
c.. Drag the cursor to the right until the text scrolls to the end.
d.. Right-click on the text and choose Copy.
e.. In the Start, Run box right-click Paste. Click OK to open the store
folder.


Using Keyboard Shortcuts for Transfer of the Folder Path

An even easier method when opening that page is to use the Tab to
highlight the folder location, then Ctrl+C and close OE, then use Start/Run
and Ctrl+V. Same caveat about hidden files applies but can be easily
modified in Explorer by using Tools/Folder Options.

Hi Tim,

Thank you very much for your reply. I have read it and find that the problem about the inbox.dbx file. I follow your solution rename the inbox.dbx as inbox_tmp.dbx, then I solve the problem successfully ^^. I think the dbx file is too large becoz it was 1.99 GB in size.

And a more question want to ask. Now I rename the original inbox.dbx file, will I can't read my old message in outlook store in this file ? If this case happen any way to solve it ?

Thank your very much again.

Hi Stephen,

It is sometimes better to import messages from a folder other than the store
folder. But it may be possible to import the messages in the renamed folder.
[Do Not move this (renamed) file now--Note: Folders.dbx is required for
importing.]

1.. On the File menu, point to Import, and then click Messages.
2.. Select the e-mail program you want to import messages from, and then
click Next.
3.. Verify the location of your messages, and then click Next.
4.. . You can choose Selected Folders to import messages from one or
more folders. click Next.
5.. Click Finish.

Default Error code 0x800C0133 occur during receive mail

I am getting the same error message 0x800c0133 when i open outlook express
6.0. I also cannot delete any of my inbox messages. I have tried the
compacting feature but it has done nothing. I've also changed the outbox.dbx
file/folder to outbox.old, but still no change. any other ideas.

Default Error code 0x800C0133 occur during receive mail

Please start your own new thread in the future. Thank you.

Error Number: 0x800C0133 = a corrupt Inbox.

Move any mail you wish to save to a local folder you create. Then:

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 |
View.

With OE closed, find the DBX file for the folder in question {Inbox.dbx} and
delete it. A new one will be created automatically when you open OE.

General precautions for Outlook Express:

Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They will eventually become
corrupt. 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.

Default Error code 0x800C0133 occur during receive mail

I got the "Error Code 0x800c0133" when trying to retrieve messages from my
server into Outlook Express 6 also.

Found a fix to rename the Inbox.dbx file to Old Inbox.dbx and it seems to
work now.

The problem is I need all those message in the Old Inbox.dbx file.

Can someone from MSN or somewhere help me?

Error Number: 0x800C0133 = a corrupt Inbox.

Move any mail you wish to save to a local folder you create. Then:

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 |
View.

With OE closed, find the DBX file for the folder in question {Inbox.dbx} and
delete it. A new one will be created automatically when you open OE.

General precautions for Outlook Express:

Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They will eventually become
corrupt. 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.

Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer
of protection that eats up CPUs and causes a multitude of problems such as
time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A/V program will
continue to protect you sufficiently. For more, see:
