Outlook Email Errors

Reviewing your Outlook DVD, I learn a lot. I am very exciting try to transfer from outlook express to outlook 2007. But after transferring, I got real problem. Outlook will download messages several times a day from the server and I wind up with three or hour of the same emails. I finally got disgusted and went back to OE, now that program locks up and often won't open attachments. I have no clue, and I really don't want to wipe the HD and start over.
I will work around it until it becomes unbearable. And I kept getting a message from OE to compact my files, and each time I tried to allow it to that it locked up. I deleted a bunch of old stuff, but that didn't help. I am running my business through E-mail system. It is very important to get it straight. Hope you have an answer for me on your busy schedule. Thank you very much.

Check the below image to make sure you are not saving a copy of the email on the Server. This settingmay have been set on OE and was corrupted during the migration to Outlook 2007.

Be aware that Outlook Express is likely to crash around the 2GB mark whereas Outlook 2007 can (not recommended) hold 20GB of messages but no more than 5,000 in the one folder like the Inbox.
