Error 0x800c0133 when you are retrieving email with your Outlook Express (OE) is because of currupted Inbox file.

To remedy please follow these steps:

1. Open OE, on the left pane, right click "Local Folders", select "New Folder...", specify a name for your new folder as "Temp".
2. If you are still able to access "Inbox", move all mails in "Inbox" to the new "Temp" folder.
3. Go to menu "Tools" -> "Options" -> "Maintenance" tab -> "Store Folder" button. It will show the location of your Inbox file, please remember this location.
4. Close OE, go to the location mentioned above, delete the file "inbox.dbx".
5. Restart OE, the "Inbox" folder should be auto recreated. Move back your mails to the new "Inbox", remove the "Temp" folder.

Good Luck.

Shady,

I currently just experienced the problem above.
BUT, when my inbox became corrupt, I lost ALL the emails in the inbox!
Can you advse where they when or if I can recover them?
There were a couple of thousand in there.
I don't want to go through the procedure of resolving the corrupt box if it has a connection to retreiving the lost emails.
I hope you can help,
Thank-you for your attention and response,
Vic
