If that didn't fix it, including turning off e-mail scanning, then your
first assumption is likely correct.

Are you able to access the messages via the ISP's Website and delete the
offending message there? That would be the easiest way.

Another possibility is a message rule. A corrupt message is usually larger
than an average e-mail.

Create a Message Rule:

Where the message size is more than size
Delete it from Server
Click on Size and set it for about 100KB.
Click: Apply Now.

Go back to the Inbox and click Send/Receive. This should get rid of the
message.

Remember to go back into Message Rules and either delete the rule, or
uncheck it so you can use it in the future.

I have tried this and the error still persists. Could there possibly be
anything else that might be causing this error to show?

Error Number: 0x800C0133 = a corrupt Inbox.

Move any mail you wish to save to a local folder you create. Then:

Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store Folder will reveal the location of
your Outlook Express files. Press the Tab key to highlight the folder
location, then Ctrl+C. Close OE, then Start | Run | Ctrl+V will put the
location in the box - Click OK and you'll see the OE files. Otherwise,
write
the location down and navigate to it in Windows Explorer.

In WinXP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default
marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must
enable
Show Hidden Files and Folders under Start | Control Panel | Folder
Options |
View.

With OE closed, find the DBX file for the folder in question {Inbox.dbx}
and
delete it. A new one will be created automatically when you open OE.

General precautions for Outlook Express:

Do not archive mail in default OE folders. They will eventually become
corrupt. Create your own user defined folders for storing mail and move
your
mail to them. Empty Deleted Items folder regularly. Keep user created
folders under 100MB, and Default folders as empty as is feasible.

After you are done, follow up by compacting your folders manually while
working *offline* and do it often.

Click on Outlook Express at the top of the folder tree so no folders are
open. Then: File | Work Offline (or double click Working Online in the
Status Bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything
until
the compacting is completed.

Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant
layer
of protection that eats up CPUs and causes a multitude of problems such
as
time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A/V program will
continue to protect you sufficiently. For more, see:
http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

In Tools | Options | Maintenance: Uncheck Compact messages in background
and
leave it unchecked. {N/A if running XP/SP2}.

Hello I'm working for a client and one of their computers is unable to
recieve emails from their POP3 server. I have analyzed this and I have
found
that during the transfer of messages at the second message it receives
the
following error:
"An unknown error has occurred. Account: 'mail.trinvestment.com',
Server:
'mail.trinvestment.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No,
Error
Number: 0x800C0133"
In addition, the first message that is recieved is completely blank
(eg,
no
infomation of the message subject, sender, recipient, etc.)
Naturally I'm assuming that the second message is causing all this
trouble
but there is the possibility that it could be something else.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
