OL 2002: Mail Retrieval Problems Occur When You Receive POP Mail

SYMPTOMS
If you use Outlook to download messages by using the Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) protocol, the following message retrieval problems may occur:
• Messages that you expect to be deleted from the server after retrieval are not deleted.
• Messages that you purposefully leave on the server are downloaded again the next time a mail retrieval occurs. As a result, duplicate messages are created.
• You are prompted to log on to the server repeatedly during the download and your credentials are not accepted.

CAUSE
These problems occur because the POP3 retrieval design in Outlook 2002 sometimes does not issue the POP3 commands for retrieving and deleting messages in the same communication session. A Request for Comment (RFC) requirement that indicates that the RETR and DELE commands must occur in one session does not exist. However, the commands must exist in one session in certain server implementations of POP3. For example, if a POP3 sever allows only one logon during a time interval (for example, five minutes), when Outlook performs a second logon to complete the RETR/DELE command set during this time period, the second logon is rejected.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Microsoft Office XP. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
307841 OFFXP: How to Obtain the Latest Office XP Service Pack
In Outlook 2002 SP2, the POP3 retrieval design has been changed so that the RETR/DELE sequence is always completed in the same POP3 session.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was first corrected in Microsoft Office XP Service Pack 2 (SP-2).

MORE INFORMATION

The Outlook 2002 SP2 design change that is described in this article also allows the QUIT command to be included in POP3 protocol logging. Before the design change, the QUIT command was issued after the log file was written. As a result, it seemed that the QUIT command was never issued. The new design shows the QUIT command correctly in the log files

Has this happened to you? You've had a lengthy e-mail conversation and now you realize a face-to-face meeting is necessary. Instead of creating a new meeting request and then copying and pasting text from the e-mail message, you can use the Outlook AutoCreate feature to quickly create a meeting request and capture all the information in your e-mail thread. And best of all, AutoCreate lets you convert any item into an item of another type, such as a contact into a task or a note into an appointment.

Turn an Outlook item into another type of item

  1. Drag the message onto the Calendar icon on the Outlook Bar.
  2. Enter the location for the meeting, and then make any changes and select any additional options you want on the Appointment tab. (Relevant information from the message has already been added to fields in the new meeting request. The entire message appears in the meeting text box.)
  3. On the Actions menu, click Invite Attendees.
  4. Enter a name or names in the to box.
  5. Click Send.

That's it. You've turned an e-mail message into a meeting. Now that you know how easy it is to use AutoCreate, see what other kinds of items you can create from existing items.

Note If you prefer menu commands, you can select the item and then click Copy to Folder on the Edit menu to create a new item.

Outlook 2002 Product Description

Outlook version 2002 makes working with e-mail, tasks, contacts, and appointments more intuitive without requiring users to learn new ways of accomplishing their tasks or spend time searching for the right tools. A variety of security enhancements have been included in Outlook version 2002 to help users feel more secure when working with e-mail. Setup and configuration have been made simpler with such enhancements as single-integrated e-mail mode, customization enhancements in the Custom Installation Wizard, and a simplified interface for setting up e-mail accounts.

New features include AutoComplete Addressing: As a user enters an e-mail address, Outlook automatically recognizes it and completes the name based on previously sent e-mail to the recipient. Users can also now access e-mail from their Hotmail accounts (or other Internet mail providers) directly from within Outlook. Users with multiple e-mail accounts can choose on a per-message basis what account to use to send their message. With Word as the default e-mail editor, users can take advantage of the smart tags that are available in Word (including AutoCorrect, paste options, address, name, date, or customizable smart tags). Smart tags are context-sensitive buttons that give users the options and information they need at the time they need them.

Users can now easily change between different mail formats on the fly and on a per-message basis. By giving users the option to switch between HTML, rich text, or plain text, they can more easily format their message so that the recipient can have the best viewing experience. Mailbox Cleanup allows users to view the size of their mailbox, search for files by size or by age, and then delete, move, or archive those files to clear up space. Exchange users can also automatically be notified when they are approaching their mailbox size limit and choose from the above options for cleaning up their mailbox. And Outlook can now automatically clean up plain text e-mail formatting that often contains extra line breaks that make the message difficult to read. Outlook automatically removes the extra line breaks (an option exists to turn this off as well) when a user opens an e-mail message, previews the message in the preview pane, or prints the message so that it is easier to read.

Access your work e-mail and schedule from home

With the prevalence of computers and Internet connections at home, you may have wondered how you can access your work e-mail and schedule in Outlook 2002 from your home computer, handheld PC, or Pocket PC.
With Outlook, you can send and receive e-mail messages and share other information from your office, from home, and from the road. At the office, you typically connect to a server on a local network. At home or on the road, you can manage your e-mail messages and other items on your work computer in one of the following ways:
• From a desktop or laptop computer using the Remote Mail or Offline Folder feature in Outlook.
• From a mobile device, such as a Pocket PC or handheld PC.
This article gives you an overview of how each option works and tells you where to get more information and provide Outlook Support.
Using a Pocket PC or handheld PC
The Pocket PC and handheld PCs are types of mobile devices, that is, information appliances that are more similar to a TV than to a desktop computer. Both devices offer a version of Outlook that runs on the device, as well as the ability to synchronize the information on the device with your office and/or home computer. You can view your e-mail on your Pocket PC or handheld PC online. Messages that you receive through your regular ISP (such as MSN® and AOL), your corporate network, and your Internet-based e-mail (such as MSN® Hotmail®) can show up in your Inbox on your Pocket PC or handheld PC.
By using Microsoft ActiveSync® on your Microsoft Windows®-based computer, you can synchronize your Pocket PC or handheld PC with your desktop PC over both direct and remote connections. These devices connect to your desktop or laptop computer for synchronization using a USB (Universal Serial Bus) cable or a serial cable, or infrared connection. You can also connect using a modem (with network Remote Access Service, or RAS, server access), or you can connect to a LAN using a network (Ethernet) card. For details about Pocket PC functionality, visit the Pocket PC Web page. For details about handheld PC functionality, visit the Handheld PC Features: Hardware Web page.

How to Talk With Internet Telephony

You can make talk with cheap with internet Telephony. Now I am discussing some thing about Email Support and further continuing with latest update about Email .With the deregulation of the U.S. telecommunications industry, the price of phone calls has plummeted in recent years. But even at reduced rates, monthly charges can added up for chatty folks. A new technology, Internet telephony, also known as VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) virtually eliminates long distances charges, allowing you to call almost anywhere in the world for the price of a local call. If you have broadband Internet access, you can't beat the price--it's practically free.
Digital Dialing
With Internet telephony or VoIP, you place a voice call either from your computer to another person's computer or to a landline or mobile phone. When calling from computer-to-computer, both parties must have compatible telephony software and be online at the same time. At the moment, there are no universal standards, so be sure to determine which software the person you want to call uses. Calling from computer-to-telephone is simpler, because only you need the software. You can download telephony software and it's free. In either case, you'll also need some hardware: a sound card (most computers already have one installed), a microphone and speakers (or a headset).

To save a vCard file to a convenient location

Business cards are a great way to share information about yourself and your company when you want to network with others-potential clients, employees, employers, businesses whose services you want to use, friends, and so on. However, relying on printed business cards alone can be risky: You and the people you give them to can lose them, misplace them, or run out just when encountering a valuable contact. A handy solution is electronic business cards, called vCards (virtual business cards), which you can send in e-mail using Outlook.

Think how much handier it'll be for recipients when your business card is stored on their computers. No more digging through briefcases or wallets for a little piece of paper! And think how much easier it'll be for them to share your information with others when they can send your electronic business card to anyone they exchange e-mail with Outlook Support.

Before you can send a vCard, you must enter in Contacts the information for the person whose business card you're going to send. This includes adding an entry for yourself if you're going to send your own business card.

Follow the steps to save a vCard file…

  1. Click Contacts, and then select the contact you want to open.
  2. On the File menu, point to Open, and then click Selected Items.
  3. In the contact, on the File menu, click Export to vCard. Specify the location where you want to save the file, and then click Save. When you want to insert the file in an item that you have opened, on the Insert menu in the item, click File, and then select the .vcf file.

When you receive a vCard file from someone else, you can transfer the information to Contacts to automatically create a contact for that person. Once the information is in Contacts, you can forward it at any time as a vCard.

How to Keep your Web clippings in Outlook Notes



As you are surfing the Web or reviewing a document, you might come across some information that you want to save for a project that you are working on or for some other future reference.

In the days before computers, ATM machines, and 250+ channels of television, when people wanted to save some information from a newspaper or magazine, they used to cut the articles out by using scissors and then file the information in a folder.

Leave e-mail messages on your e-mail server

All the e-mail messages that you receive go through an e-mail server (e-mail server: A computer that stores e-mail messages.) for your e-mail account (e-mail account: The server name, user name, password, and e-mail address used by Outlook to connect to an e-mail service. You create the e-mail account in Outlook by using information provided by your administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).). Depending on the type of e-mail account that you use, your e-mail messages are processed in one or more of the following ways.

1. Messages remain on the server. Outlook connects to the server, and you can read or delete your messages.
2. Messages are downloaded to a local data file called a Personal Folder File (.pst) (Personal Folders file (.pst): Data file that stores your messages and other items on your computer. You can assign a .pst file to be the default delivery location for e-mail messages. You can use a .pst to organize and back up items for safekeeping.). Outlook connects to the local .pst file so that you can read and delete your messages.
3. Copies of messages are downloaded and synchronized with messages on the e-mail server. Microsoft Exchange Server accounts provide this functionality by creating a local Offline Folder File (.ost) (Offline Folder file: The file on your hard disk that contains offline folders. The offline folder file has an .ost extension. You can create it automatically when you set up Outlook or when you first make a folder available offline.). This file is used for working offline when you can't connect or don't want to connect to the e-mail server. This file is also used by the Cached Exchange Mode feature in Outlook 2003.
E-mail account types differ in how e-mail messages are saved and synchronized with the e-mail server. For example, by default POP3 e-mail accounts delete e-mail messages from the e-mail server when downloaded into Outlook. However, you can customize how e-mail messages are retrieved and saved. Other e-mail accounts, such as an Exchange Server e-mail account, save all e-mail messages on the e-mail server by default. You can configure an Exchange Server e-mail account to keep a copy of e-mail messages on your computer that allows you to read e-mail messages when not connected to the Exchange Server.
I have discussed above How to leave Massage on the Server and also want to provide link for Outlook Support and Email Support.

Microsoft Outlook POP3 e-mail accounts

When you retrieve e-mail messages from a POP3 (POP3: A common protocol that is used to retrieve e-mail messages from an Internet e-mail server.)” e-mail account, the messages are deleted from the e-mail server by default after they are downloaded to your computer. For many people, this works great.

However, if you want to check your e-mail from multiple computers, you must configure Outlook to not delete the messages on your e-mail server. This scenario is most common for people who want to check their home Internet service provider (ISP) e-mail account from work and download the messages for permanent storage on their home computer Help.

When you leave messages on your e-mail server, you can choose from several options to delete your messages. To make your choice, you need to consider several factors about your e-mail usage, such as how long you want the messages to be accessible from multiple computers and the storage limits imposed by your e-mail server administrator. If you exceed your storage limit, you might be unable to receive new messages or might be charged additional fees. Typically, it is best to have one computer set to the default setting that doesn't leave e-mail messages on the e-mail server. When you use the computer to retrieve your e-mail messages, they are downloaded and deleted from the e-mail server. If you choose not to do this, Outlook allows you to select a time duration for leaving e-mail messages on the server.

  1. On the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts.
  2. Click View or change existing e-mail accounts, and then click Next.
  3. Select your ISP account, and then click Change.
  4. Click More Settings.
  5. Click the Advanced tab, and under Delivery, select the Leave a copy of messages on the server check box.

· Select one of the following options:

  • Remove from server after x days E-mail messages are downloaded to your computer but remain on the e-mail server for the number of days that you specify. This is the most common setting for people who want to read their messages at work but also download them for permanent storage on their home computer. We recommend that you choose the smallest number of days that suits your needs. The longer you leave messages on your e-mail server, the greater the risk of exceeding your mailbox size quota.
  • Remove from server when deleted from 'Deleted Items' E-mail messages are downloaded to your computer but also remain on the e-mail server indefinitely until you delete the e-mail message in Outlook and empty the Deleted Items folder. Just deleting the message doesn't remove the message from the e-mail server.

If you do not select either check box, messages are left on the server indefinitely. You can eventually exceed your mailbox quota, unless you connect to the e-mail server from another computer that has Microsoft Outlook configured to remove messages from the e-mail server.

· Click OK, and then click Finish.
