You probably need to look at the following, but always post an error message in its entirety. Courtesy of Michael Santovec: http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm All of those have the same cause. Something is screwed up with your address book. It could be any of several specific problems, which include: - corrupted WAB file - corrupted or mismatched DLL files for the address book - having OE set to use the Outlook98/2000+ contacts instead of the WAB file and there is something wrong at the Outlook end For specifics, take a look at: Err Msg: The Message Could Not Be Sent. Some recipients not valid (Outlook Express: There was an error opening this message) (The Address Book failed to load.

Post the complete (verbatim) error message. Is MS Office and/or MS Outlook also installed? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Desktop Experience - since 2002 AumHa VSOP & Admin http://aumha.net DTS-L http://dts-l.net/ RAW875 wrote: > when I try to send e mail or access my adress box the computer tells me > that > outlook express is configued wrong and that my address file is corrupted > and > can't be loaded.
