In my last couple posts I addressed the issue of running out of memory and how it affects Outlook and Outlook Express. As an email administrator you will often have various resource issues as you have probably already experienced. Besides finding out that your system is running out of memory the other issues you will probably run into from time to time is that of running out of disk space.

If you’ve received any of the following errors then you have already dealt with these issues. But if not then here are some low disk space scenarios and potential solutions.

One indication that you may have a low disk space problem that adversely affects Outlook Express execution is if you receive the following error:

OLEXP: Error Message If the Folders.dbx File Is Missing or Damaged

Other errors you may receive, after you start Outlook Express or try to send any email messages can include any of the following error messages:

MSIMN caused an invalid page fault in module Msoe.dll
MSIMN caused an invalid page fault in module “unknown”
MSIMN caused an invalid page fault in module Directdb.dll
Msimn caused an exception C0000006h in module Directdb.dll
Outlook Express: The message could not be sent. There is not enough Disk space.
Unknown error has occurred. Protocol: SMTP Port: 0 Secure: No [SSL] Error: 0x800c0131

If you get any of these error messages then it is most likely because your Folders.dbx file has become corrupted or cannot be found for some reason. It is also possible that the read-only attribute has been set for the Folders.dbx file.
