Outlook 2003 corrupt can't send or receive email

Hi people,

I use outlook express 2003. But now i cannot send or receive mails from outlook. Please tell me how can i start using it again. Outlook is corrupt?

Thank you.

Try to empty the deleted items folder, then restart Outlook. If it allows you to, it might help. Uninstall the old versions if you have any. Create a new profile, delete the old outlook profile, restart the computer. Just Try!

You can configure outlook 2003 to be used with SBC. The following steps set up Outlook to both receive and send e-mail messages with your SBC Yahoo! account.
You can receive your SBC Yahoo! e-mail messages by using Outlook from most places with an Internet connection. SBC Yahoo! also provides you access to an authenticated SMTP server — allowing you to send e-mail messages using Outlook from your SBC Yahoo! account when you are using another Internet service, such as at your office or when traveling.

The most common cause of this problem is that Outlook didn't close properly or entirely the last time you used it. A piece of the program may still be in your computer's memory, so Windows may believe the program is already running. To fix this reboot your PC, which restarts Windows with a clean memory slate.

First thing is to make sure you have the latest updates installed. Then check the following:

1. Increase the server timeout setting on your email accounts in Outlook.
2. Try sending and receiving from another accounts, if you have multiple accounts.
3. Temporary enable your antivirus in outlook or you can uninstall the current antivirus and check it with AVG or Avast.
