I got a weird error message on Outlook XP. I seem to get
it reproducably.
If I drag a .pdf file from "My Documents" to drop on the
HTML email I am composing, I get an "Out of resources"
message.
What the heck does that mean in the context of Windows
XP/Outlk XP?
I have no folders open in outlk, I have tried it with no
other programs open (my memory stats claim in 1000K's
Commit: total 235 limit 1019 Peak 477,
physmem: total 524, avail 309M, cache:233.
outlck is using 27720k with vm size of 10140k, 557
handles, 10 threads.
So it's hard to see I'm even close to any limits...?
But ...MORE ODD...
If I do a file insert of the file, it not only works, but
it shows the original file I _tried_ to drop on outlook --
i.e. if I dropped it once & insert, I see 2 copies, if I
drop it twice then insert, I see three copies.
So the files are being attached, but I'm getting error
messages. Amusingly, I still have the extended alerts
enabled and did a "report to MS"...it took me to a page
saying they had gotten tired of receiving all the
feedback and had disabled the feedback program and to
remove the extended alerts...
MS wants me to upgrade to Otlck 2003, but they can't even
make 2002 work, and then they add a bunch of new features
in 2003 and want me to try it? HELP!
Can't they just fix the software they have?
I also, BTW, still have problems with my outlook randomly
hanging on network connections after a few IMAP
transactions. It will work some random number of times
then it will hang.
I needed to move some files from my "Sent Items" folder to
the IMAP server, I'd be able to move as many as 3 but
sometimes as few as zero before outlook would hang.
Anyone else seen this? I thought it was the shlwapi.dll
file replaced by the dcom fix, but it turns out that the
problem still happens with the older version -- just less
frequently....must be another problem and shlwapii.dll
just exploited the timing window more...
:-(
