See http://www.insideoe.com/problems/errors.htm#crash
General OE Caveats:
- Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose.
- Empty Deleted Items folder daily.
- Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm.
- Do not attempt to close OE via Task Manager or shutdown your machine if Automatic Compacting is taking place (WinXP SP2 only).
- Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.

unable to open the Outlook Express message store. Your computer may be
out of memory or your disk is full. Contact Microsoft support for

could not be started because MDOE.dll could not be inialized. All the
files appear correct in the c:\program files\outlook express folder. I
have not done anything to the registery. Any ideas?
