Initialize Junk filtering stops me opening Windows Mail

When I try to open mail I get the error message:

" Windows mail could ot be started. initialize junk mail filtering. Your
computer may be out of memory or your disk is full (0x80070002)"

My disk is certainly not full. After that I get another error message:

"Windows Mail could not be started because MSOE.DLL could not be initialized."

What does this mean and what do I do to open up my mail system again?

If MS going to issue an upgrade to is mail system - it seems to have so many
problems and deficiencies?

Thanks. Mike

Try the compact and repair buttons here (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) and see if
they fix the issue.

I have the same problem that Mike has and I use www.oehelp.com/WMUtil and it
did not solved my problem. Know any other way to help?

Windows Mail is very sensitive to interference from certain antivirus
programs. Read http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
If you have McAfee or Norton antivirus, uninstall it. Reboot and try
Windows Mail again. Once you get your email working properly,
download and install a less troublesome antivirus program such as the
free Avast. Whichever antivirus program you keep, be sure to
disable its email scanning option.

Gary, Thanks for your help. I completely removed Norton Antivirus and it
still did not work. I also tried the WMUtil again and rebooted and still it
fails to work. The only small change is that the box for MS Mail appears
momentarily before the same error message covers it up again.

I am getting desperate - what's my next move?

The only chance now is to wipe out the database and see if it will start
then.

Go to Tools | Options | Advanced | Maintenance | Store Folder to find the
message store location. Then move everything under that Windows Mail
directory to another directory, so that the Windows Mail directory is
completely empty. Then restart WinMail and it will open fresh with nothing
in the database. You can then add your accounts and if they work correctly
then you can import messages from the directory to which you moved the files
back into WinMail (see www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm2wm).

If it still doesn't start, then post back and we can try other things.

Steve,

When you say 'go to tools' do you mean tools in Windows mail? I cannot open
Windows mail - that's my problem. Is there somewhere else I should be
looking?

Unless you moved it, the Windows Mail directory can be found here:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail.
